This post is part of a weekly series on Women and Health Reform.
This has been an exciting week for us, with lots of momentum (and press!) building up around Tuesday’s public launch of the major coalition for health reform that we are proudly a part of – Health Care for America Now. We joined this coalition because health reform must be a top national priority. Too many women and their families don’t have access to affordable, high-quality health coverage. Too many others are worried that—as health care costs and insurance premiums rise—they will lose the coverage that they now have. We will continue to fight for progressive health reform that meets the needs of women across the country, and thanks to the Health Care for America Now coalition, we know that we aren’t alone. We’re united with over a hundred other organizations representing people from all walks of life - teachers, small business owners, communities of color, nurses, rural residents, faith-based groups, medical students, and so many more. We urge you to find out more about where Health Care for America stands on important health reform issues and to tell us which side you are on in the fight for progressive health reform. Stay tuned for more exciting news about our work with the coalition in the future.
