Joe Knollenberg is the 2nd most vulnerable Republican to vote against SCHIP. Gary Peters has launched to following campaign, urging our supporters to take action in support of Children’s Health Care.
Are you upset that Congressman Joe Knollenberg sided with President Bush by voting to eliminate children’s health care coverage? Let’s show Joe Knollenberg that our children deserve affordable health care too.
At the Peters for Congress website, we’ve made a Wagon Coloring Page that you and your kids can print out, color in, and mail to Joe Knollenberg.
A little red wagon is symbolic of American Childhood. Let’s make sure our children have the childhood they deserve, by protecting health care for the children of working families.
Why are we doing this now?
Joe Knollenberg has a chance to vote again in support of this necessary program, supported by a vast majority of Governor’s and even other Michigan Republicans like Fred Upton and Candice Miller. The bill, which passed the House 265-159, was vetoed by the President. However the House has scheduled an override vote, in an attempt to override the President’s veto. The vote is expected to come this Thursday.
Let’s urge Joe Knollenberg to support children’s health care, not the President’s veto!
Please go print out a wagon, color it, and mail it to Joe Knollenberg before Thursday.
