← Vermont Voters to Sanders: KILL THIS BILL.

Bernie Sanders will tell you time and time again: he is a True Progressive.  He wants to defend Americans from the crisis of our disintigrating health care system.  He is left-of-Dean.

Then why has Howard Dean come out against this toxic bill while Sanders now supports its passage?

The current bill WILL:

• Force you to pay up to 8% of your annual income to buy insurance from private corporations even if you don't want it
• Take up to 2% of your annual income in penalties if you refuse to purchase insurance
• Impose massive restrictions on women's right to choose
• Tax the middle class insurance plan you get now through your employer, causing them to cut back benefits
• Allows insurance companies to charge people who are older, or who have preexisting conditions, four times as much as others

Sign our letter to Bernie Sanders: If you want progressive votes in the future, you better cast one against the current bill now.
