From the SingleWoman.com website …..
If you are a single woman, right now you are the forgotten constituent in this very important healthcare reform debate.
In previous articles, we’ve explained that single women in their twenties – pay more than men the same age.
(I guess that’s a way for our insurance companies to tell us that we’re high maintenance. That’s okay: they are slowly taking away the once-included- in- your-premium preventative healthcare that makes that an issue — you know, things like pap smears and and mammograms.)
And despite paying more than our male counterparts, we also make less than them, which means healthcare costs are a bigger portion of our overall income.
Isn’t any surprise that many women can’t afford any healthcare at all?
So, who is keeping you from getting a government-paid benefit enjoyed by every other First World country?
These companies are also sending mobs to shout down any town hall meetings where the issue of a government healthcare option can be discussed.
Well, we have a voice, too.
Don’t be shouted down.

// Sign our petition here.
Our goal is 100,000 signatures by Labor Day, which we will then present it to the Senate and the Congress.
The simple truth: it’s now or never. If our elected officials know we’re watching the money flowing from us and to them, if they know our next vote will be to their competitors, they’ll have to listen to us.
So make your voice heard.
