Organizations Supporting Government-Run Health Care

The organizations listed below are working to support the liberals’ attempt to take over the health care industry.  We, conservatives, need to watch and counter their efforts.  July 31 is their target date for the House of Representatives to produce and pass a full plan.

• Organizing for American Health Care Action Center (BarackObama.com)
• MoveOn.org (I can’t find one specific page for health care.)
• Universal Health Care Action Network
• AARP Health Action Now
• Healthcare-NOW!
• Health Care for American NOW!
• Secure Health Care for All (National Physicians Alliance)
• Faithful Reform in Health Care
• Stand Up For Health Care (Families USA)
• VoteHealthCare.org
• AmericanHealthCareReform.org
• Latinos for National Health Insurance
• AFL-CIO’s Health Care Page

Federal government websites promoting “health care reform”:

• White House Health Care Issues Page
• HealthReform.gov

When I started searching, I expected to find about ten organizations.  I’m floored at how many there are.  Can we win?  Can we retain our liberty and control of our health care?

Petitions Opposing Government-Run Health Care

I’ve found the following petitions opposing government-run health care:

• Free Our Health Care Now
• Hands Off Our Health Care
• Do No Harm
• Stop Universal Health Care
• Government-Run Health Care is Not the Answer
• No Government Health Care Rationing

While searching for these petitions, I found three or four times as many in favor of “health care reform” or “the public option.”

Lists of Senators’ Projected Positions on #CapandTax

Here are the lists I’ve found and heard about so far:

• Environment & Energy Daily > “Senate Climate Debate: The 60-Vote Climb” (July 7, 2009)
• Temple of Mut > “Key Cap and Trade Senate Targets” (July 6, 2009)
• FiveThirtyEight > “How Can the Climate Bill Get to 60 Votes?” (July 6, 2009)
• Grist > “Counting Senate Votes on Climate and Energy” (July 2, 2009)

Here is the Senate timeline for the cap-and-trade bill according to a liberal environmental group:

• 7/7: Environment and Public Works (EPW) Committee hearing on climate and energy legislation;
• 7/8: Finance Committee hearing on international trade considerations in climate legislation;
• 7/8: Foreign Relations Committee hearing on “industrial competitiveness” in climate legislation;
• 7-15-7/17 EPW anticipates releasing draft legislative text;
• 7/27-8/7 EPW climate bill markup;
• 8/8-9/7: Senate on recess;
• 9/18: Majority Leader Reid’s (D-NV) markup deadline for all six Senate committees with climate jurisdiction.

Move ahead of Moveon.org

As Christa Huff posted at The Right Huff, “MoveOn.org is planning a telephone blitz on National Health Care for Thursday July 9.”

Call your senators and tell them you don’t want socialized/nationalized health care.  (You can also sign the Free Our Health Care Now petition.)

Definitions of economics:

• “a social science concerned chiefly with description and analysis of the production, distribution, and consumption of goods and services”–www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/economics
• “the branch of social science that deals with the production and distribution and consumption of goods and services and their management”–wordnetweb.princeton.edu/perl/webwn
