DEFENDING AFFORDABLE CARE

Dear Lucas,

The Supreme Court heard recently arguments on the legality of important parts of health reform...

No, this isn’t 2012. I know you’ve heard a lot from me in the past about attacks on the Affordable Care Act, and that this might seem like crying wolf. But this isn’t a fable -- this is actually happening. In real life. Right now.

If the Supreme Court gets rid of many of the subsidies from the Affordable Care Act, millions of Americans could lose their health insurance or lose their jobs. Sign our petition and show your support for access to affordable health care.

The health care reform law works in part because it provides subsidies to millions of people who otherwise couldn’t afford insurance. If the Court overrules the clear intent of Congress, health reform could unravel -- the economic incentives just won’t be there, for patients and providers alike.

Undermining the Affordable Care Act could also mean a return to the old, inefficient, and unfair way we used to provide health care. It could mean the end of the Medical Loss Ratio, a provision I helped include in the Affordable Care Act that requires insurers to spend most of their money paying for medical treatments.

The Affordable Care Act needs to be defended. Join me in standing up to protect this landmark law -- click here to sign.

Thanks,

Al
