I will miss Senator Edward "Ted" Kennedy on the national scene. He had a passion for many issues, including health care reform, that many others lacked. He cared about people and their plight. His mother, Rose Kennedy, would often tell him, "To those who have been given much, much is expected." He gave back more than he received.
So now, let us use Ted Kennedy as the catalyst for change with health care reform. Organizing for America has some great items that we can use in arguing for reform.
Reform the health care system:
We will take steps to reform our system by expanding coverage, improving quality, lowering costs, honoring patient choice and holding insurance companies accountable.
Promote scientific and technological advancements:
We are committed to putting responsible science and technological innovation ahead of ideology when it comes to medical research. We believe in the enormous capacity of American ingenuity to find cures for diseases that continue to extinguish too many lives and cause too much suffering every year.
Improve preventative care:
In order to keep our people healthy and provide more efficient treatment we need to promote smart preventative care, like cancer screenings and better nutrition, and make critical investments in electronic health records, technology that can reduce errors while ensuring privacy and saving lives
Let's hear your thoughts and how health care can be reformed.
