Tell your representative who you're fighting for

Friend -- "I'm here for Natoma." That's what President Obama wrote us yesterday about Natoma Canfield, an Ohio woman whose story helped inspire the President and the nation to keep fighting for reform. As we speak, each member of Congress is preparing to cast their last vote on health reform, while insurance-company lobbyists bombard D.C. with a million-dollar-a-day campaign of distortions and threats. To break through in these final moments, we must show Congress why we'll never forget the choice they make: Because we're fighting for the people who matter most in our lives. So today, we've launched a new tool to help OFA supporters show Congress the names of the people who drive us to support reform. It might be a sick father. Maybe it's a friend who lost her job. Or maybe it's a daughter who simply deserves to grow up knowing that affordable care is always within reach. Whoever you know that's inspired you to fight for reform, the time to act is now. Our voice is strongest when we speak out together, so please write to your representative today. Submitting your letter takes just a moment -- please click here to join in. A message to your representative about why you're fighting will provide extra inspiration to those who have been standing with the President, and it could help provide the resolve to support health reform if they haven't made up their mind. As the President reminded us, reform is not only about helping those who struggle today -- it's about making sure that no American is ever just one job loss, accident, or illness away from going without the care they require. That's why we're committed to reform that ends insurance-company abuses, guarantees affordable choices, and brings down costs. But it all depends on the upcoming vote in the House of Representatives -- and with just a day or two left, it's still too close to call. Our new online tool makes it easy to tell your representative who you're fighting for, and you can even submit a quick photo to drive the message home. Your words and images will be sent straight to your representative, and they'll be visible to every member of Congress before the final vote is cast. Together, we can send a unique message, powerful enough to break through when it matters the most. http://my.barackobama.com/DayNine Thanks for making it possible, Natalie Natalie Foster New Media Director
