Why do we need the choice of a public health insurance option? Imagine a health care system without profits. Without CEO pay. Without denials. Without the rising premiums crushing us and our families. What would we have left? You and your doctor.
These are the new ads Health Care for America Now is going up on the air with. Can you help us extend our ad buy and get the word out on blogs? More on the flip...
This is the vision of a public health insurance option. Contrary to Republican talking points, nothing in the proposed plans for a public health insurance option would take away your choices and your relationship with your doctor. Nothing.
These ads are up in key states: Arkansas, Delaware, Florida, Iowa, Louisiana, Maine, New Mexico, North Carolina, Oregon, and Washington.
It's time to get this message out. Call your Senators.
But even more importantly, you can help us extend the ad buy and get these ads up on blogs as paid advertisements. Click here to donate and we'll send you a free t-shirt!

Update, transcript of the ad:
Voiceover:
What if we stripped away the 13 billion dollar insurance company profits?
The 119 million dollar CEO bonuses?
The endless denials.
The soaring co-pays and premiums?
You’d have health care between you and your doctor – that’s the President’s plan. Keep the coverage you have now.
Or choose from a range of plans
Including a public health insurance option to lower costs and keep insurance companies honest
Tell your Senators – It’s your health. It should be your choice.
