> Not only would a single-payer healthcare system save California taxpayers
> billions of dollars, it would ensure the health and well-being of all its

> moral imperative to provide health care to everyone.

> Join your fellow Californians in supporting Senator Leno's bill to create a

>
> Our economic crisis is directly connected to the out-of-control health care
> costs Californians deal with every day. A single-payer system would reign in
> health care spending and ensure that Californians have the care they need.
>
> California leaders have been fighting for a single-payer system for years. Now
> with federal health care reform enacted and other states, like Vermont, moving
> toward a single-payer system, we're closer than we've ever been. We must seize
> this moment. California's state senators need to see that there is strong
> grassroots support to pass single-payer legislation this year.
>
> On May 4th the Senate Health Committee is holding a hearing on the bill.
> Supporters from all over the state will be there and Democracy For America ,
> supported by Howard Dean,MD, will deliver this petition with your signature
> to the members of the Committee.
>
> Add your name in support of single-payer legislation right now.

> California needs this bill to pass. The millions of Californians without
> adequate coverage are counting on it.
