Protect TRICARE, TRICARE for Life, VA Healthcare
Email or call your Senator to voice your concerns and opinions on VA healthcare beneficiaries, TRICARE for Life, and TRICARE beneficiaries. The Senate is poised to vote tomorrow on health care reform.
Let your Senators and the leaders of the Senate know you expect them to protect VA beneficiaries, TRICARE for Life beneficiaries, and TRICARE beneficiaries with the passage of any Health Care reform.
The Senate has not accepted any language that protects beneficiaries from unintended consequences, or from any excise tax increases in the proposed health care reform. Please act today and ask your Senator to include an amendment to protect these earned benefits as they consider passage of the Senate health care reform bill HR 3590.
Electronically, this effort takes less than two minutes to accomplish, however, you can call your Senator - at 202-224-3121 and ask for your Senator to protect VA and DoD Health Care programs and not integrate them into the current Senate bill - HR 3590.
