Write a letter for health care today (it's easy!)

Organizing for Action
Joe --

Couldn't get out to volunteer last week for health care enrollment?

That's OK -- here's a way you can make good on your pledge to pitch in for the final push from home right now:

OFA supporters across the country are writing letters to the editor to help get the word out about the last call to get covered by this year's deadline on March 31st.

With this week's news that 5 million Americans have already signed up for private plans on the marketplace, now is a perfect time to make sure your neighbors don't get left behind.

Get started right now -- use OFA's letter to the editor tool today.

There's a simple reason why we ask folks to write letters to the editor: People read them.

No matter where you live, it's often one of the most commonly read sections in the paper -- serving as an important forum for the critical issues in the community.

Don't worry if you're not sure what a great letter should look like -- we've got you covered (good health care pun, right?). OFA's letter to the editor tool on the Health Care Action Hub has a ton of great topic ideas and best practices to help get you started.

It's always fun to see your name in print -- and it's no small feat to help people in your community find out more about getting health insurance before the big deadline.

So stretch out those typing fingers, and head on over to OFA's letter-writing tool to get cracking:

Thanks -- I can't wait to see what you come up with,
