Here is an ACTION ALERT to help protect Medicare and Social Security.
Please make a note to make the call!
As part of Healthcare-NOW!'s Hands Off Our Medicare campaign, we are joining
in the national call-in day on Nov 30th to challenge the
Deficit Commission's recommendations on cutting Social Security and
Medicare.  We urge you to circulate the email below to your friends and
family.

            Let us know if you will call Congress next Tuesday, November
30th to say, "No cuts to Medicare or Social Security."






      The Co-Chairs of the National Fiscal Commission have proposed carving
up Social Security and Medicare like a Thanksgiving turkey.

      They want to increase the retirement age to 69, deeply cut benefits
for middle-class workers, reduce annual Cost of Living Adjustments, increase
healthcare costs to patients, and reduce Medicare reimbursements to
providers.

      We need your help to stop them! Join thousands of Americans in a
National Call Congress Day on Tuesday, November 30.

      We need to know if we can count on you to call Congress next Tuesday.

      Click here to make the "Count on Me" pledge to tell Congress not to
cut, privatize, or raise the eligibility age for OUR Social Security and
Medicare.

      Social Security and Medicare are promises that must not be broken.
They belong to our children, our parents, our neighbors, and ourselves. Help
ensure that your Social Security and Medicare will be there for your
children and your grandchildren.

      After you've made your personal "Count on Me" pledge, forward this
email and tell your friends, family and co-workers to add their voice and
participate in the National Call Congress Day on Tuesday, November 30. Don't
let politicians in Washington cut OUR Social Security and Medicare! ACT
TODAY.


      For Improved Medicare for All,
      Katie and Jeff
      Healthcare-NOW! National Staff

      P.S. If you don't act, Congress will assume you don't mind if your
Social Security and Medicare benefits are carved up like a turkey. ACT NOW!
Your voice needs to be heard. Click here to make the "Count on Me" pledge to
join the National Call Congress Day on Tuesday, November 30.
