Heath Care Reform
We are down to the wire on Health Care. The Brain Injury Association of America again prompts action. I have written my representative to support the health care bill.
Brain Injury Awareness Day, 2010
Thank you to everyone that made this year’s Brain Injury Awareness Day on Capitol Hill a huge success! With record attendance at both the brain injury fair and briefing, hundreds of community members, survivors and state affiliates met with various lawmakers to advocate for increased brain injury appropriations, access to brain injury care, caregiver assistance, and other important issues. Congratulations to all for a very successful day!
Health Care Reform Update
This week, both President Obama and Speaker Pelosi lobbied to win passage of their health care reform package. However, it is still unclear whether the two have procured the 216 votes needed to win the House vote that is projected to happen this Sunday.
Now is the time for grassroots to act! I have copied below the action alert that was sent out earlier this week. If you have not yet called your representative, please do so as soon as possible!
Call Your Representative NOW – The House will Vote on Health Care Reform this Week!
The House of Representatives is set to vote on the Senate health care reform bill at the end of this week. If the measure fails, the hope of health care reform will likely vanish for this year and maybe even for years to come.
Even though the House and Senate have both passed their versions of health care reform, the only way forward for the bill is for the House to approve the Senate version.
