I have been the picture of health until I came to the USA. The only thing that changed was the food I ate. Little did I know about GMOs since it is kept secret from the public as much as possible by the manufacturers like Monsanto, Syngenta and its friends like Dow, DuPont, Bayer, Basf, Cargill, and others. There is a reason for so much cancer, heart disease, birth defects, infertility, autism, kidney diseases, obesity, allergies and others. Not only in us; in our pets too! Organic can sustain the world. GMOs are ruining it and our government is in bed with them.

Wisconsin Faith Voices for Justice calls upon Governor Scott Walker and the leaders of the Wisconsin Senate and Assembly to implement the state health care exchange and the expansion of Medicaid, as called for in the Affordable Care Act. As clergy and people of faith, we believe it is a moral imperative to provide health care for all our citizens.

If you belong to an Anthem Blue Cross health plan or pay California state taxes your money is helping to fund misleading, partisan political ads. These ads hurt our families by attacking supporters of health care, environmental regulation and Wall Street reform. Anthem Blue Crossʼs super-rich parent company, WellPoint Inc., which last year made $2.6 billion in profit and paid its CEO more than $13 million, is secretly using your premium money against you and your family to oppose rate regulation that would keep Anthem and other health insurers from price-gouging. UPDATE: Angela Braly has resigned as CEO of WellPoint, bowing to pressure from investors and activists amid accusations of mismanagement. Petition signatures will be forwarded to John Cannon, interim CEO, instead.

I would like to get insurance companies, including Medicare, to cover hearing aids due to loss at birth and injuries.

Congressional privilege, particularly in terms of their medical and healthcare benefits, is blinding our legislators to the reality that ordinary citizens confront. Let's abolish the congressional health plan and put our legislators on the same plan the rest of us have (or lack)

The State of Connecticut charges sales tax for doctor-prescribed over-the-counter medicine, such as Mucinex and Triaminic. I brought this to the attention of a State Representative and - heard nothing. My child had pneumonia and part of her protocol, per her pediatrician, was over-the-counter medicines. Rite Aid charged sales tax. When I asked the clerk if the billing was correct, she sadly said yes. What a poor way to raise state revenue!

Enough signatures have been gathered in Encinitas to put a medical marijuana bill on the ballot. The only problem is that the city has canceled the only council meeting where they can vote to put it on the November 2012 ballot. If that meeting doesn't get reinstated, the voters of Encinitas wont be able to vote on this issue until 2014. Please sign the petition to ask them to reinstate that meeting.

The Supreme Court of the United States has spoken. Please don't get in the way of the benefits many Texans will receive from the Affordable Care Act, Governor Perry. Allow its implementation and accept that it is and will be the law of the land, despite your deep philosophical disagreements with it. Thank you.

I have insurance but too many Texans don't and can't. Let's help them.

The cost of healthcare has skyrocketed in recent years and this affects all of us. Administrative costs, layers of bureaucracy and especially executive compensation and bonuses in the millions of dollars directly and unnecessarily inflate our health care costs while doing nothing to keep us healthy. Since we in Massachusetts are required by law to have health insurance, it is not unreasonable to expect health care costs be kept down through a government mandate. No one should be profiting from an individual's illness or accident. This is not unconstitutional - many other states already limit what professionals can charge for services. For example, auto mechanics in California not being able to charge over a certain hourly rate for labor.

La Alianza de Cooperativas de Salud de PR te invita e exigir se deroguen las medidas que permiten la interferencia de los intermediarios en el tratamiento médico. La Ley 194 del 29 de agosto de 2011 permite que los planes tomen decisiones por encima de las recomendaciones del médico que está en contacto directo con el paciente, llegando a poner en riesgo la propia vida del paciente.

Regrettably; I am among the "un/under insured Americans. The state plans set-up for those with pre-existing conditions are too expensive. I am drawing unemployment insurance and pay $795.00 a month for rent, not counting utilities, medications and auto insurance. I can not afford $400-$500.00 a month for health insurance. I am 62 years old and need insurance I can afford!
