The parent should have the right to sender autistic child to the best school for them, and not have to fight the district to get them out just because they want the money from the state they get for each special needs child a year($100,000.00)

I would like to see every America have the option of affordable and quality health care. I believe that when fully implemented costs will drop and people will begin to realize the benefits of the Affordable Care Act.

Many members of my family and many of my friend's family members can not afford basic medical insurance plans. Texas' elected officials, especially governor Rick Perry and SenatorTed Cruz are denying over a million Texans (more individuals than any other State in the country) access to basic health care by refusing to accept Federal funds to expand Medicaid coverage for Texas. The health and welfare of their constituents should be a top priority; not their celebrity status with the extreme right wing of the Republican Party. I urge them to implement the Medicaid expansion immediately.

The Affordable Care Act is a good thing....it supports the 48 million people who can't afford or have been blocked out of health insurance. The 4 million insured who could potentially lose their current policy have the option to get another, more robust plan.

Obamacare - we need to speed up its implementation.

Very dear friends have found affordable health insurance through the Marketplace. They were "uninsurable" before. Now they are covered in spite of pre-existing conditions. It has taken a huge worry off their shoulders--the fear of losing everything they have to pay medical costs. I will gladly pay more for my health insurance premiums if it means affordable care is available to everyone. That's a "no-brainer!"

We are all affected when our government pisses money away!!

The individual insurance plans under Obamacare have gotten off to a rocky start. But families like mine, where we are not eligible for employer sponsored health insurance, but have pre-existing illnesses, depend on the success of this law.

I am starting this petition because I have worked in health care for 30 years and see what insurance companies have done to health care delivery and availability. Insurance should be available for all and not just the privileged. The Affordable Health Care Act has been thwarted by politicians who only want to make our SECOND TERM President fail.

I have Evans Disease, I am unable to work, I have a preexisting condition. I am alive today due to Obama Care and the "Opt-In" of Medicaid in Illinois. The GOP doesn't want stories like mine to be told as they go against their smear campaign to destroy Obama, using the American people as collateral damage. The Affordable Care Act, or Obamacare, has been under attack by mainstream media for more than three weeks now. What the media isn't telling you are the millions of success stories like mine.

It is time to stop hurting low income Missourians and expand Medicaid to allow the working poor access to healthcare. Too many of us live day to day wondering when, not if, the inevitable will happen, leaving us hospitalized, without the means to pay for it. The ACA is the law of the land. It is here to stay. Your refusal to opt in is doing nothing but hurting hundreds of thousands of Missourians by denying us the opportunity to have our basic health needs met. This program is federally funded for the first few years and will cost the state absolutely nothing. After that, the state's cost is 10 percent. A small price to pay for the well being of so many of us. Opt in today!

I believe that any medical coverage should include dental coverage. Dental coverage should not be denied because of inability to pay. It is a medical need and it should be included as such.
