After months of delay, the full Senate is about to debate and vote on landmark health care legislation. But first, Senator Harry Reid and Democratic leaders have a big decision to make:
Will the Senate consider real health care reform with a robust public health insurance option, or a watered-down compromise full of giveaways to the insurance companies?
This is a hugely important decision. Progressive champions in Congress are standing strong for the public option and Sen. Reid himself has expressed support—but he's under immense pressure from a few conservative obstructionists who oppose it.
Please sign Moveon.org's petition here. They will present it to Sen. Harry Reid and Democratic leaders.
Also, please call/email President Obama and your Congressional leaders. You can find their contact info here. The two minutes this takes can make a huge difference.
