Thoughts on Health Care Reform from the President of the Iowa Federation of Labor

How many of you have seen a flyer or poster about a fund raiser for someone who needs help with health care costs

We have all seen them.  Maybe some did not have health care, but most likely, they were denied the coverage by their health insurance
I had a friend who “wasn't stage four, so he could not participate in the
cancer trial, as he was only stage three.”  Another is now in a trial
because when she lost her job, she lost her health care benefit, but picked up a
policy from the same insurance company.  She got breast cancer and they said it was a pre-existing condition – pre-existing, when she was insured under the same company. 

Health care
for all or health insurance for all?  There is a difference.  Take time
to contact your senator and congressman

Democracy is not a spectator
sport.
