    AFSCME Privatization: Issues

    Call Senate and Tell them to restore aid to states!

    Now It's Time for the Senate to Act

    "President Obama has signed historic health care reform legislation into law, and now it's time for the Senate to end Republican obstruction and pass the package of legislative fixes as is.

    The American people need the reconciliation provisions without any further delay. Improvements to the Senate bill make health insurance more affordable for seniors and the middle class, and dramatically lessen the burden of an excise tax on working families.

    Americans need this assistance now, yet Republicans want to stall them as long as possible. Please don't let this happen."
