• Healthcare to include access to Alternative Medicine
    As a Mom of four grown children raised without vaccines & allopathic medicines prescribed by conventional MD's, I know that people can & will be healthier through natural means: holistic nutrition for prevention and natural treatments by qualified professionals would eliminate 90% of dis-eases afflicting too many people including children. It pains me to see young parents dealing with chronic illness in their children that could so easily be prevented or treated with natural means. Millions of Americans already choose holistic professionals & treatments because they work better with no harmful side effects. This "better" medicine should be a choice available to all.

  • Congress: Repeal ban on importation of meds from Canadian pharmacies
    Since passed by a Republican Congress and President Bush, it has been illegal to get FDA approved cheaper brand name medications from Canadian pharmacies. $900,000,000 in lobbying costs have rewarded international pharmacies billions of dollars in revenue at the expense of Americans needing meds and taxpayers paying the health insurance of millions of federal,state and local workers. As a physician, I know the financial burden is too high for Americans.

  • Dental care coverage thru Medicare, ACA
    Comprehensive Dental Coverage should be covered by Medicare and the ACA as the connection between poor oral health care and other problems with the Heart and lungs is indisputable. "The 2000 Surgeon General's report, Oral Health in America, has called attention to this connection and states that, if left untreated, poor oral health is a "silent X-factor promoting the onset of life-threatening diseases which are responsible for the deaths of millions of Americans each year."

  • Rick Scott is hurting working Floridians–again!
    Obamacare makes it possible for working people who do not have employer-provided health care to acquire affordable health insurance. Each of us knows someone who is struggling with this devastating problem. Governor Rick Scott continues to block available federal funding for working Floridians without insurance. It is up to us to stop Scott from stopping health care for those who need it most.

  • Public health care
    Like life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, health care is a right. People should not be punished financially for getting sick.

  • Governor Perry, please get out of the way!

  • DEMAND SINGLE PAYER HEALTH INSURANCE
    Other developed countries watch our health care debate and shake their heads. Most of them have cradle to grave coverage based on the reduced costs that single payer insurance provides. Health, like energy and democracy should not be cash cows for corporations. So called "Obama Care" merely hands the HMO's more customers. It does not reduce costs or allow citizens and doctors to make health care decisions.

  • Texans for a Healthier Texas
    This petition asks Govenor Perry to stop playing politics with the lives of Texans by rejecting millions of dollars from President Obama's Patient Bill of Rights. By accepting the Patient Bill of Rights, Texas, the number one state in the nation for providing poor healthcare to it's citizens, would provide millions of citizens with healthcare and also create more jobs in doing so.
