We, the undersigned, would like to see the hearing process started on Senate Bill#791and House Bill #1490. The United States Radiation Exposure Compensation Act (RECA) program needs to be amended. This RECA amendment bill could help many of our countrymen who feel the federal government and nuclear industry abandoned them after they gave health and lives to support U.S. efforts during the nuclear arms race, the Atoms for Peace program and the uranium mining industry. They are called Cold War Patriots, let's treat them like it.

Insurance is becoming too expensive for most people these days, and more selective about who they will insure - and this trend will only get worse, even as our population needs it more than ever with unemployment being so high. We need a solution that is palatable to all political sides. If insurance companies are forced to become non-profit organizations, they will not be able to take monetary advantage of us any longer, and we will all be able to find affordable health insurance coverage.

The problems in health care are rooted not only in the real cost of the service itself, but in the doctor's culture of charging astronomical sums for simple regular visits and exaggerated, threatening misdiagnosing. Health care expenses are out of control of the society, Congress and common sense. In order to halt the rising cost of health care, a principal reform of the sphere must be carried out. The essence of the approach should be the revision of the objectives of the health care itself and principles of its operation and pay. We need to bring the doctors pay to market principles. They operate as business enterprises, but charge as worse monopolists. Current $8000 spending in a year/per person, is unthinkable luxury for any state and society.

GOP-proposed assualt on Medicare

While posting record profits and handing out multi-million dollar bonuses to their Illinois-based executives, Blue Cross Blue Shield just proposed another double-digit increase on New Mexico insurance customers. BCBS is pushing this increase through just before new consumer protection regulations take effect forcing them to publicly justify their rate increase. Don't let that happen! Tell BCBS to stop raising New Mexico insurance rates to support record profits and pay big bonuses to out of state executives.

TRICARE, the health care program serving active duty service members, National Guard and Reserve members, retirees, families and survivors worldwide, does not provide chiropractic benefits. Therefore, our military and their families are forced to pay for their chiropractic care as they understand the benefit that chiropractic provides for them. Please help us support those who protect us by providing them the healthcare that they deserve by supporting HR409 Chiropractic Health Parity for Military Beneficiaries Act. http://www.govtrack.us/congress/bill.xpd?bill=h112-409 F

Her2 Breast Cancer patients suffer from one of the most aggressive breast cancers. Herceptin T DM-1 is a revolutionary drug that has shown great results.It has been successfully tested in humans for over 4 years. Yet last Sept. 1, 2010 this FDA decided to block approval, and run more trials , until 2013 ! The drug it is being tested against has been shown already to have many more side effects to the patient and a lower quality of life. Why are they making Stage 4 patients wait, and suffer more ???

Lubbock is poised to become the largest city in the United States without a health dept. Mayor Martin and others in the city government want to close the Health Dept and fragment services.

House Bill 4936, which is a merging of the original Senate Bills 293 and 294, has been introduced on September 14, 2011 because the original bills were cancelled due to overwhelming opposition. House Bill 4936 is still proposing changes to Michigan's Auto No-Fault System which will affect auto accident victims who need medical care because of their injuries. 4936 will still decrease the amount insurance companies pay for medical care which will lead to loss of jobs in the home care sector, a decrease in tax revenue for the State, and increased costs to the Medicaid system. The changes will hurt the State, Michigan Citizens, Auto Accident Victims, and Home Healthcare Businesses.
