Dear MoveOn member,

Two years ago, my mother, Rhonda, lost her job. Then she lost her health insurance. She needed major surgery, but was so worried about bankrupting our family with hundreds of thousands of dollars in medical bills that she waited. She waited until she couldn't hold off any longer without risking her life.

The Affordable Care Act (aka "Obamacare") came along just in time. It saved her life, and has already helped many more Americans get desperately needed health care.

And it happened because we fought for it in Congress, online, on the phones, and in the streets.

Now that the Supreme Court has upheld Obamacare and its protections, my mother—along with millions of other Americans—can feel confident that they'll be able to get the care they need. And that makes me very thankful.

Let's join together in thanking President Obama for his work to pass Obamacare and protect the lives of millions of Americans.

Click here to sign my SignOn.org petition telling President Obama, "Thank you for Obamacare."

Under the Affordable Care Act, my mother was able to afford a state health insurance plan that included the highest-ranked surgeon in the state. She had her surgery and is almost completely recovered. There are thousands of stories like hers out there, showing how Obamacare literally saves lives.

My mom is joined by 86 million Americans who have gotten free preventive care through the Affordable Care Act, 105 million who no longer need to worry about lifetime benefits caps, and 17 million children who can't be denied care because of pre-existing conditions.

I'm glad to be a part of the millions who came together to fight for the Affordable Care Act, and to have a president who stood up for health care for all Americans.

Thank President Obama by signing my SignOn.org petition that reads, "Thank you for Obamacare." 

Thanks!

Ms. Rhonda is not alone people. There are millions of people just like her-

I cannot believe the number of people that (still) do not understand the necessity of having this healthcare. 

I can understand that too many people are just too damn lazy to do the research needed, and to learn about it.

And that is sad.

When our opinions are based on FACT, and not erroneous email, rumor, and conjecture- not to mention the unnecessary "fear", it is only then that we can become educated enough to share our information with others.
