| Dear Friends,
As you read this, Congress is at home for two weeks of recess. And what your member of Congress hears from you is crucial to the direction of the health reform debate on Capitol Hill. Make sure Representative Norton hears from you during the congressional recess. Take a few minutes today to write a letter to the editor of your local paper. To help you get started, I've included a few tips and talking points. In March, five Republican senators reached out to President Obama and pledged to work with him to pursue bipartisan reform. It's an encouraging sign that we can finally end the partisan fighting and pass meaningful health care reform this year. But the mood in Washington can turn on a dime. It's crucial that Congress knows that health care reform is not just the Obama administration's priority -- it's the American people's priority. While members of Congress are at home for the April recess, they need to see and hear "health reform" everywhere they go -- from the supermarket to their morning breakfast table. And if there's one thing we know your lawmaker has on the breakfast table, it's the local morning paper. The truth is what Representative Norton hears from constituents is far more powerful than anything a talking head or interest group could ever say or do. In just the few minutes it takes to write a letter, you can be more influential than the most connected D.C. lobbyists. Writing a letter to the editor is simple -- and I've included some tips and talking points to help. Click here to start your letter now -- and make sure Representative Norton hears from you during April recess. Thank you for being a part of this crucial effort to bring access to affordable, quality care to all Americans. We couldn't do this without you. Sincerely, Barry Jackson and the Divided We Fail Team | ||
