Why I support #hcr (a personal story)
When I was unemployed for some time several years ago or working
part-time or as a contractor with no benefits, I couldn't possibly
have afforded to buy health insurance on my own. They never even got
to the point of rejecting me for my pre-existing condition. We need healthcare reform NOW for all the millions of people who have
been in that position. House Democrats, please pass the Senate bill, even if that's all you
can get. Among the ways it could have helped me back then: * Prohibit insurance companies from denying coverage for pre-existing condition
* Subsidies to help pay for insurance
* Medicaid expansion to cover childless adults, if I had been really poor And there are many more reasons to do it. Please, pass the bill now.
