Healthcare Providers: Publish Your PricesHealthcare Providers are not required by law to post their prices. Thus, e.g., a patient cannot know the cost covered for an X-ray. it is vital to know how much a patient may have to put out him/herself.5 of 100 SignaturesCreated by SHEILA MCCAHEY

Fair Standards for Health CareHealth Care I am finding it hard to pay for ever increasing health care costs even though I have worked for over 50 years. I think congress should have to be given the same choices that the American people are. They do the voting. if this was the case, we would save money and they would vote for better care for us all.4 of 100 SignaturesCreated by susan syracuse

Require labeling of all GMO/biotech foodsConsumers deserve to know if our food contains potentially harmful genetically modified organisms (GMOs). Thirty countries have placed restrictions on GMOs, but the U.S. doesn't even require a labeling system, much less regulate them, due to a powerful, wealthy biotech lobby.7,595 of 8,000 SignaturesCreated by Jennifer Lapierre

Ban ADT for prostate cancer clinical trial eligibilityEvery promising biotech cancer treatment currently requires prostate cancer patients to undergo and fail androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) to be part of any clinical trial. By the time this failure occurs, the patient is too sick and weak for the full benefit of the treatment to be realized. The ADT itself is a big part of the reason. Let these treatments be tried on their own merits.2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Lawrence E. Marc-Aurele

Rep. Joe Walsh should be disciplinedRep Walsh made the moronic statement recently that in no case can a pregnancy harm the mother, and the idea that an abortion may be needed to save the mother's life is just an excuse to have an abortion. His ignorance of medicine should be sufficient to remove him from the Subcommittee on Healthcare and Technology (of the committee on Small Business) in the House. As a mother and grandmother, I fear that such nonsense could harm the reproductive freedom women enjoy today.7 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Susan Tannenbaum, MD

Stop Military Retirees TriCare Fee IncreasesWhen my husband signed up with the US Air Force many years ago, we were told then that if he retired with the Air Force, we would receive free medical care for the rest of our lives. It sounded good to us to be taken care of. Now we are having to deal with TriCare, paying out of pocket expenses we were not prepared for. Our own government promised this to us and consistently threatens to up our fees again and again. I am calling on you to put a stop to the rising fees that are putting a strain on the military retirees with government health insurance. (Tricare). We kept our promise and continued to support our country. Now, we're asking you to support us as we supported you for many years.45 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Ann Green
