Call Members of Congress and Ask Them to Sign the Public Option Letter

On August 17, 60 members of Congress signed a letter saying they would vote against any health care bill that did not have a robust public option, something 77% of Americans support.  It says:

To take the public option off the table would be a grave error; passage in the House of Representatives depends upon inclusion of it.

We have attached, for your review, a letter from 60 Members of Congress who are firm in their Position that any legislation that moves forward through both chambers, and into a final proposal for the President's signature, MUST contain a public option.

Why aren't others members of Congress from the strongest Democratic districts in the country signing it too?

Call these members and tell them to add their names to the letter. After you call, let us know what they say in the box to the left.
