<p><span style="FONT-SIZE:small;">Jenifer - <br><br>On Friday, Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin announced that the Senate will support and pass whatever the House includes in a reconciliation bill -- even if it includes the choice of a public health insurance option. <br>
<br>This gives Speaker Nancy Pelosi a historic opportunity to take the reins back on behalf of the House of Representatives and the majority of Americans who want a public option. <br><br>It's up to us to make sure Speaker Pelosi doesn't kill the public option because she's afraid to act. She needs to know that we'll be there to have her back. We'll whip Congress to pass the bill and help every step of the way to get the majority votes we'll need to win. <br>
<br></span><a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://dfa2.convio.net/site/R?i=R7rWWCFZcIDZ7BdfacQb5g.."><span style="FONT-SIZE:small;">Sign the petition right now</span></a><span style="FONT-SIZE:small;"> and we'll deliver each signature to her office at the end of the day on Monday. And then again on Tuesday. And again on Wednesday. We'll deliver the new signatures every day until she gets the job done. <br>
<br></span><strong><span style="FONT-SIZE:small;">The fate of the public option is in Speaker Nancy Pelosi's hands. It's up to us to make sure she doesn't kill the most popular piece of reform. <br></span></strong><span style="FONT-SIZE:small;"><br>
