Getting answers from the Senate |
 |
Chris Bowers has been keeping track of the answers you all have gotten from the Senate over the last few weeks. For those just joining the campaign, we, along with Chris at OpenLeft and Democracy for America, are asking Senators to answer for questions on the public health insurance option:
- Do you support a public healthcare option as part of reform?
- Do you support a public healthcare option that is ready on day one?
- Do you support a public healthcare option that is national, available everywhere, and accountable to our government?
- Do you support a public healthcare option that has the clout to establish rates with providers and big drug companies?
The answers are starting to trickle in, and we’re going to publish them all this week. But we want to make sure we’ve gotten all the responses so our count is accurate. So, if you’ve gotten a response from your Senator, click here to report it.
Of course, if you haven’t gotten an answer yet, keep asking. As Chris says (and I concur), if there’s one thing he’s learned from blogging, it’s that you have to keep asking Senators over and over until you get the answer you want. So, click here to email you Senator.
And of course, tell your friends about this campaign, so we can turn up the pressure.
Stay tuned for the answers!
