Peter Welch, VT (202) 225-4115 Dear Arnold,

Wow!! Thanks to your calls and emails on Friday, Rep. Dennis Kucinich's

amendment to let states adopt single-payer healthcare _passed the House

Education and Labor Committee_ (http://www.thenation.com/blogs/thebeat/452493)

by 25-19.

Of course the insurance industry will try to kill the Kucinich amendment

during future votes, so we will watch carefully and keep you posted.

Today the House Energy and Commerce Committee (E & C) will vote on Rep.

Anthony Weiner's amendment for an even better bill: universal (not

state-by-state) single payer healthcare, Medicare for All (_H.R. 676_

(http://www.johnconyers.com/hr676faq) ).

Please call some of the Democrats on E & C right now and urge them to vote

YES on Rep. Weiner's single-payer amendment to the healthcare bill.

If you speak with a staffer, post their reply here:

And if you can be in DC on Thursday July 30, celebrate the 44th birthday

of Medicare and rally/lobby for single-payer:
