This Is What Change Looks Like

Today is the first day since the vote in Congress for the Health care Reform Bill in America. It is far too long a Bill to attempt to summarize it in this short acrostic. What I have used here are the things that I will remember from the Bill. Again, I have been fortunate to witness a very Historic event and hope to share it with many of readers.

 

This Is What Change Looks Like

 

Thanks to past generations who brought us here

Heroic efforts made it possible for us to get Health Care

It took current Members of Congress to pass the final vote

Some 219 brave men and women who today wrote

Into History a Reform Bill that will help many

So many previous Americans who couldn’t get any

With all the preconditions, job status, the disenfranchised

Hospitals refusing care because treatment was privatized

All this now controlled so none is turned away

Treatment assured because all can afford Healthcare today

Coverage is not denied because of conditions that pre-exist

Healthcare through your employer is good so you may keep this

And no longer will you have those unexpected spikes

No Insurance Company can target you for premium hikes

Government may even give you a tax credit

Every uninsured person will be insured, the Government will see to it

Lots of tax credits to Small Businesses to insure employees

Owners of these businesses now have a greater tax ease

Our kids can stay on our insurance until they are 26

Kudos to President Barack Obama for adding this fix

Stupak was called “Baby Killer” although it was he

Leading anti-abortion clauses and the President EO eventually

It guarantees no money in the Bill will be used for abortions

Keeps the language precise to satisfy Pro-Life Americans

Exceptional transformations will occur and this is the first strike

This Is What Change Looks Like!
