Service Employee Union's Latest Attack on RNs Parrots McCain's Attack on Obama's Health Plan

ystem which routinely denies needed medical care and exposes families to financial ruin in the pursuit of higher revenues and profits."

CNA/NNOC is a national leader in the campaign for a real reform, as embodied in a bill in Congress, HR 676, which would establish a single-payer system, such as an expanded and improved Medicare-for-all. HR 676 has more co-sponsors, 90, than any other reform proposal in Congress, and is endorsed by 430 labor organizations across the U.S.

Ironically, SEIU President Andy Stern claims to also support HR 676, even while he has attacked the concept and has been working with Wal-Mart and the nation's biggest insurers to promote plans that strengthen and reinforce "the chokehold of insurance companies on our health," Markowitz noted.

CNA/NNOC is joining with patients and healthcare activists in San Francisco, Philadelphia, Chicago, San Antonio, Pittsburgh, Louisville, and other cities from coast to coast June 19 for major protests against the insurance industry and a call for HR 676.
