Contact your members in the House of Representatives and Senate to OPPOSE passage of the American Health Care Act.*
President Trump has been increasing pressure on the House of Representatives to pass the previously withdrawn, but newly modified, GOP American Health Care Act (AHCA), their purported replacement for the Affordable Care Act. The bottom line is that millions will lose coverage. Pre-existing conditions are not covered as the President has claimed. The bill has not been scored by the Congressional Budget Office so we do not know how many will lose coverage. Please see the links for more information. It is urgent for you to call your representative and oppose this bill.
Call your representative to oppose, possible script:
Your script (modified from 5 Calls):
Hi, my name is [________] and I’m a constituent from [CITY, ZIP].
I’m calling to oppose HR 1628, the American Health Care Act. The latest amendment to the bill strips away essential protections for people with preexisting conditions while doing nothing to fix the AHCA’s original problems. It has not been scored by the OMB.
Thank you for your hard work answering the phones.
