Attention Small Business Owners:
Stand Up for Health care Reform

As a small business owner, you can speak firsthand to the impact of our health care crisis on our economy. Skyrocketing cost of health care is crippling small businesses. Health care premiums are almost 20% higher than those paid by large businesses. Many small businesses owners can no longer afford health care for themselves or employees.

The Change that Works Small Business Forum promotes Virginia’s small businesses that support comprehensive healthcare reform. Small businesses believe that healthy families translate into a stronger local economy and community and that’s good for businesses. Please join with other small businesses from around Virginia, and pledge your support for reform that will help make us healthier and help get our economy back on track.

As a member of the Virginia Change That Works Small Business Forum, I am committed to ensuring that Senators Warner and Webb - and the entire Virginia Congressional delegation - hear our voices.

Yes, I will join the Change That Works Small Business Forum. As a member, I pledge to:

• Write a handwritten letter to members of Congress ensuring they hear why small business owners like me support health care reform.
• Be part of the campaign’s Rapid Response Team and speak out about why small business owners support health care reform.
• Visit the Virginia Congressional Delegation over the recess and tell them why small business owners like me support health care reform.
• Post a sign at my business supporting health care reform. I support health care reform NOW!
