Make Trumpcare Mandatory for CongressIf Republican legislators are going to introduce massive, structural change into the health care sector, it is only fair that they should personally experience the effects of this change. Direct empirical experience of the law will be the best test of its proclaimed benefits. We should let Congress enjoy the same quality of insurance that will be available to Americans on the self-insured market. That's why I started a petition to end taxpayer subsidies for Congress's health care and to make Trumpcare mandatory for members of Congress, their staffs, and their respective families if they vote to pass Trumpcare.131,935 of 200,000 SignaturesCreated by Peggy McInerny

American Muslim Health Professionals Unequivocally Oppose the Better Care Reconciliation ActAMHP has been at the forefront of ensuring that Americans are aware of and connected to health insurance coverage under the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and this new bill will have devastating consequences for the most vulnerable members of our population and will undermine many of the gains made over these past four open enrollment cycles. An estimated 22 million Americans will lose their health care coverage. There will also be a reduction in coverage for our most vulnerable populations—including those suffering from addiction and mental illness. Promoting affordable and attainable healthcare coverage for all Americans has been a top priority for AMHP. As an organization that represents over 2,000 health professionals and students, we are committed to keeping the ACA's protections in place.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Iman Jandali

Voldermont affect of trumpcareI do not want to live in a nation where the government of the nation is committing GENOCIDE on innocent human beings in that nation. I do not know if a vote in favor of trumpcare is an act of GENOCIDE. Before there is a vote on trumpcare we need, as a nation, to decide if one of the side effects of the bill is to commit GENOCIDE.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Peggy Lopez

Congress gets Premium HealthCare & We get CrumbsHealth Care affects us all and I am sick of Congress voting on things that don't affect them. If it did affect them, they might care more about us all and the inequality of health care, and less about politics and insurance companies, making them real Public Servants.10 of 100 SignaturesCreated by linda rice-mandigo

PriorityHealth is violating our CIVIL RIGHTSI have the genetic connective tissue disorder Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. As of 2017, PriorityHealth refuses to pay for Euflexxa injections for my progressive and painful joint deterioration. It expects me to use steroids, which will only destroy what little knee cartilage I have left. Steroids are forbidden for those of us with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. This is a violation of our CIVIL RIGHTS. Please sign this petition for those of us with EDS who want to maintain our mobility. If forced to rely on steroid injections, people with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome will face knee replacement surgery, which doesn't always work because of our severe structural disorder. Euflexxa injections are far cheaper than pushing people in great pain into unnecessary and premature joint replacement surgery.28 of 100 SignaturesCreated by B Donahue

Tell the Senate: Protect medical cannabis patients!Removing the fear of federal prosecution for medical cannabis patients is crucial, particularly since our new Attorney General, Jeff Sessions, has made his negative views of medical cannabis clear. Patients need the Senate to pass the CARERS Act so that they have access to the medicine they need.180 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Americans for Safe Access

Senate GOP: stop hiding your healthcare bill from the publicAmericans deserve transparency from our government, especially when our healthcare and financial well-being is at stake. But Republican leaders seem to favor rushing a vote to repeal Obamacare over transparency and accountability. Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is refusing to release a draft version of the Senate’s healthcare bill for public scrutiny, as they make a mad dash to pass get it passed before the July 4th recess. In doing so, they’re denying the American people a voice in a law that would profoundly affect each of our lives, all so they can meet an artificial deadline to appease President Trump, political donors, and special interest groups that want to repeal Obamacare. House Republicans already greased the wheels for their own healthcare bill -- granting themselves a special waiver from House rules requiring the text of legislation to be posted online for 72 hours before a vote. They were in such a hurry to vote that they didn’t even wait for the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office score to find out how many people would lose healthcare under the bill -- a nearly unprecedented step for major legislation like this. Congressional Republicans criticized the process by which the Affordable Care Act was passed in 2009, claiming it was rammed through without a fair hearing. Now, they’re doubling down on what they claimed to oppose, rushing a bill that could leave millions of Americans without health insurance. When wealthy special interests set the healthcare policy agenda instead of the American people, we all pay the price with higher premiums and less coverage. And when politicians draft bills in secret and reject common sense transparency, we all pay the price with rigged rules that benefit big donors and wealthy special interests instead of everyday people. The American people deserve transparency from our elected officials, and a fair chance to scrutinize and debate such consequential legislation. Without any publicly-available bill and public hearings, we can’t allow a vote on a bill that would affect millions of Americans. Add your name and tell Senate Republicans to share their healthcare bill with the public.1,438 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Common Cause
