PCCC Strikes Again

by digby

The House minority leader, John Boehner says:

“I’m still trying to find the first American to talk to who’s in favor of the public option.”

He doesn’t get out much, does he?

The PCCC is making it easier for him to connect with other people who support the public option by creating an easy e-vite to Congressman Boehner to meet with you too. Just click here to let him know how much you’d love to introduce yourself and tell him all about how much you want a Public Option.

By the way, it can’t be stressed enough what great work the PCCC has been doing throughout this health care fight. They have been relentlessly hammering both corporate Democrats and Republicans in their home states on this issue with a series of great ads featuring their own constituents as well as a number of other excellent campaigns. There has been a lot of great activist work during these past few months but Adam Green and Stephanie Taylor and their crew have been tirelessly working away at their strategy, hitting it again and again with a very smart tactical approach that I believe has been extremely helpful to keeping this issue on the front burner. There is no doubt in my mind that but for these efforts, along with all the others of course, the public option would have been off the table long ago and we would now be arguing over whether there should be any subsidies at all and whether insurance companies should even be forced to pay bills for sick people in the first place.

So bravo to the PCCC and Bold Progressives. Any money you give to them is money well spent.
