Change that Works – VA

www.ChangeThatWorks.net/Virginia

Why “Change that Works?”
Americans have spoken powerfully for change — change that both revives our failing economy and builds it stronger, and fairer, for the future. An economy where hard work means you can make a good living and fulfill your dreams instead of treading water or falling behind.

SEIU (Service Employees International Union) will involve millions of Americans in an intensive state-by-state campaign to help President Obama enact Change That Works — change that gets our economy back on track now, and for generations to come.

Our Goals

• Pass an economic recovery plan to keep people working, create millions of new jobs, and maintain services for our communities.
• Pass the Employee Free Choice Act to ensure that workers, not just CEOs, can benefit from the economic progress they help create and advocate for the best quality for those they serve.
• Fix our healthcare system so that it lowers costs and provides quality, affordable health care for all.

OFA Supporting Health Care

OFA is focusing heavily on the health care reform movement that’s underway this Summer, and we have several canvasses and phone banks coming up that I wanted you to be aware of.

Folks from all over the state will be meeting up and making phone calls/knocking doors to collect declarations of support for the President’s 3 principles on health care reform. He has said he wants a bill that:

• Reduces rising health care costs for families and businesses
• Guarantees the freedom to choose a plan and a doctor, including the choice of a public option
• Ensures affordable, quality care for every American man, woman, and child

They’ll also be asking people to share their health care stories, so that their voices can be heard as government officials debate the best way to move forward with reform.

If you think you’ll have time to volunteer for one of these events, please check out the following links:

• Gather Signatures in Support of the President’s Health Care Principles of Reform- Van Dorn Metro
• Health Reform is Calling, Fairfax County! (Phone Bank)

Of course, you can find many more opportunities to volunteer in your area by going to my.barackobama.com and putting in your zip code. Take a look, find something that fits into your schedule, and help make a difference at this crucial time in the health care reform effort.

Be on the lookout for OFA listening tours near you as well.

For more information you can contact one of our two OFA organizers in Lee District:

• 8th District, Jim Ricca
• 11th District, Josh Umar
