SACRAMENTO

My father has several medical conditions that are treated with medication. Without his insurance, he wouldn't be able to pay the out of pocket costs for them each month. Because of this, my mom is staying in a job where she has to work long hours every day, just to keep their health insurance. Purchasing a new insurance policy is out of the question – it's just too expensive.

I am tired of seeing my mom work so hard at her job, just for the insurance. I'm tired of seeing my father battle with HMO's to get treatments approved. We all deserve to have healthcare.
