Stop Big Insurance



On March 9th, insurance company executives were gathered behind closed doors in a Washington hotel to plot their efforts to kill health care reform. They have spent millions of dollars to thwart the will of everyday Americans who know that health care reform is essential to our economic future. At the same time, workingmen and women boarded buses and trains and traveled to Washington to tell the insurance industry that they won’t win this battle. It’s time to take health care decisions away from insurance executives who regularly put profits over people. It’s time for a final up-or-down, majority vote on health care reform.

It’s time to tell the insurance industry: Your time is up.

• It’s time to stop insurance companies from denying coverage to people with
pre-existing conditions.
• It’s time to stop insurance companies from dropping patients when they get sick.
• It’s time to require insurance companies to spend money on health care, not CEO salaries
and Washington lobbyists.
• It’s time to strengthen Medicare and close the “donut hole” in drug benefit
plans for seniors.
• It’s time to stop insurance companies from jacking up premiums on small businesses and families.
