Making sure every American has access to high quality health care is one of the most important challenges of our time. The number of uninsured Americans is growing, premiums are skyrocketing, and more people are being denied coverage every day. A moral imperative by any measure, a better system is also essential to rebuilding our economy. We want to make health insurance work for people and businesses, not just insurance and drug companies.

We've talked this problem to death.

In the next two weeks, Members of both the House and Senate will be called upon to decide which side of history they will be on when it comes to ending our status as the only nation in the industrial world that does not guarantee health care as a human right.

Talk to your Members of Congress. Ask them each what kind of legacy they want to leave after their political career is done. Tell them to stop worrying so much what the lobbyists and big contributors think about their decisions and ask themselves how those decisions will be viewed by history.

Tell these Representatives and Senators not to follow the same old road. We can now start demanding health care reform from our lawmakers.

Those who want to see a universal health care system similar to that employed in most developed countries in Europe should start informing every Representative and Senator, starting today.

Your grandkids will wonder why anyone would balk at beginning to rationalize the bloated, inefficient American health care system that leaves us 37th in the world in health care outcomes and costs us 50% more per person than any other country on the planet.

They will look back on those who tried to stand in the way of serious health care reform the way we look back on those who tried to block the creation of Social Security or Medicare or the Civil Rights Act.
