Advocacy Request from the American Cancer Society

	NO! We meant it last time. And we mean it this time, too. U.S Senators Lindsey Graham and Bill Cassidy have undermined the bipartisan work on health reform now underway in the Senate to instead propose yet another partisan bill that would be terrible for cancer patients and survivors. It is even worse than the bill you helped defeat over the summer. But, it’s gaining momentum in the Senate and we need to stop it ... right NOW. Our analysis indicates the bill could allow insurers to: Charge cancer patients and survivors far higher rates to make coverage unaffordable Eliminate coverage for cancer care in their health plans Re-institute arbitrary caps on annual and lifetime coverage Please ask your Senator, Bill Cassidy, to vote “NO” on this legislation. It will take you less than one minute to call and leave a message with Sen. Cassidy's receptionist. But, I assure you the senator’s staff is keeping a close count on how many calls they receive, so your call really can make a huge difference. Call Sen. Cassidy at (202) 224-5824 and leave this message with the receptionist or on voice mail:  "My name is [your name] and I’m from [city]. Under the Senate Graham-Cassidy health care bill, cancer patients and survivors will lose coverage and pay far more for the drugs and treatment they need. Please vote NO on the Graham-Cassidy bill." All done? Click this link to let us know you completed your call. Thank you, Erin O’Neill Vice President, Grassroots Strategy
