This is NOT an ad for health insurance.
It is a post to let you know about a bill before congress that would give small business owners, like mobile notaries, access to affordable health insurance. Most of us cannot afford the premiums unless we take very high deductibles and skimpy coverage.
I hope you will read the information below and then send an email to your congressperson. This note is from Laura Vestanen, the gal who wrote the marketing booklet for getting non-loan work.
Please send one email to your congressperson in support of a bill currently facing congress. HR 676 will change our health insurance system to a Medicare-style system.
This bill does not propose socialized medicine. It will work the way Medicare works for seniors. You will continue to choose your medical providers. The difference is that instead of the claim form being sent to a private insurance company, it will go to the government for processing. There will be no deductibles or co-pays.
This system would provide health care to all Americans. Currently millions of children and poor Americans are going without health care. This bill would provide care for them and more affordable access to care for all of us.
By cutting out private health insurance companies and reducing the amount of paperwork for medical providers, it is estimated that overhead costs for providing health care will drop by 27%.
The California Nurses Association strongly endorses this bill. Read a short and excellent article about how this new insurance system will work at their website: www.CalNurses.org/Healthcare/hr676-summary.html
This health insurance system was proposed in 1992. Insurance lobbyists quickly squashed it. Since then, insurance premiums have doubled. Please help by sending an email to your congressperson.
Congressional aides may not read every email but they definitely tally the numbers of ayes and nays. Please send an email to let our voices be louder than those of the insurance lobbyists.

Subject line: Vote yes on HR 676
Body of message: Americans need access to affordable health care.
As a small business owner, I cannot get affordable health insurance. Millions of children and lower-income people are not getting the health care they need simply because of the cost of overhead in a multiple-insurer health system.
Vote yes on HR 676 and we will remember you truly care about Americans when it is time for us to vote for our congressional representative.
