President Obama’s health care reform plan will make insurance work better, by holding the insurance industry accountable. Under the President’s plan, it will be against the law for insurance companies to deny coverage based on a preexisting condition, drop or weaken coverage when you get sick or place a cap on the amount of coverage you can receive in a given year or a lifetime.

I have personally had to fight multiple times with my previous health insurance company to obtain the coverage I purchased. Although I won all of those battles, one should not have to fight with insurance companies to convince them to fulfill their obligations. Let’s stop the partisan bickering and enact meaningful reform. Please support President Obama’s health care reform plan.

David Rossiter, Redmond
