Healthcare reform

Congress, both the senators and representatives, must give up their familial insurance privileges in toto until and unless they pass a healthcare bill which is equitable, fair and affordable for all Americans

Why is this important?

I would like to propose that congress, both the senators and representatives, give up their familial insurance privileges in toto until and unless they pass a healthcare bill which is equitable, fair and affordable for all Americans
I currently have insurance through my company, but my company has recently laid off several thousand people and is getting ready to lay off several thousand more
I do know too many people who do not have any insurance and the horror stories of the “free clinics” and substandard care to which they have access. My friend is expected to grovel and beg for doctor appointments and medicines. She has been on and off of her anti-anxiety and depression meds so much I never know how she will be when we talk. Others who have to wait for hours and make appointments months in advance to have access to medical care from the local hospital free clinics
