Dear Congresswoman Castor - Thanks for voting for HR 3962. You've helped take us one step closer to real health care reform. This reform will improve access for millions of Americans, put in place some much needed insurance industry reforms, improve our primary care work force & really allow physicians, like myself to ...focus on 'doctoring'. I thank you on behalf of Doctors for America (DFA) & the American people.
In solidarity - Mona Mangat MD

Francine In Tampa Congresswoman Castor - Thank you for voting for H.R. 3962 Saturday night, and thank you for speaking out on behalf of women's health. The men speaking against womens health equality need to realize that breast cancer, nor pregnancy are not just a woman's concern.

Dear Congresswoman Castor
I did vote for you in the last election and I wish to publicly apologize to everyone for that vote. Congress has done nothing but spend spend spend. Its like you people are paying your bills with credit cards except you expect me and my kids to pay off your debt. Time to stop spending and start... saving this country. I stand in opposition to this health care bill currently being debated in the House.Read More

Sharon Wells Prestegaard

Sharon Wells Prestegaard If this bill is passed it will mean more of our money to Washington - Maybe you can do what California just did - take 10% more out of everyone's paycheck. Even though you think we cannot take care of ourselves, we want to manage our own money. Are you aware of how many people are against this bill?

Lucie Darkes

Lucie Darkes As one of your constituents from Temple Terrace, I ask that you please vote in favor of the House bill tomorrow. You have been wonderful in your support of the public option; keep up the good work. Thanks for all you do.

David Camacho

David Camacho As a constituent from Tampa, I just want to register my support for healthcare reform with a strong public option - no opt out, no trigger. Thanks for doing a great job.

Anthony Ganter

Anthony Ganter For those who have commented on VA/NJ, You have left out that in the 2 congressional races the GOP/Teabagger candidates both lost.So the house had gained on the Dem side,where National policy is set

If you add the totals from the so-called Republican nominee and the Conservative nominee, the Democrat lost--over 51% of the people in that district voted for the "Republican"/Conservative.

Medicare is costing 10 times more than predicted - it is full of fraud and waste - The government is spending my Social Security money faster than they get it - WHY START ANOTHER GOVERNMENT PROGRAM - There are better ways to reform health care - start with tort reform - let insurance companies sell across state lines -... help people who want and need help paying for insurance. You get to shop for insurance - why can't we - or do you think we are too incompetent to make decisions for ourself.Read More

@Sharon - You need to stop getting your info from Fox News. You're being duped into supporting insurance company profit protection. No one will be forced to buy the public option. (Hence the word option?!) It is simply another choice, and a good one. Don't be a dupe. The public option will be good for everyone by forcing prices down for all. Even those who don't choose it.

OK, so delete those two sentences with the term dupe from what she wrote, and there you have it. Well put. I agree we need to avoid inflammatory phrases, both sides, AND I agree that the pulbic option is needed. AND we should fix all forms of fraud and waste. In government, in insurance companies, in big corporations, no one will argue that. Common ground. And options. No one-size-fits-all will ever work for this country.

Kathy Castor I will continue my strong commitment to a public option to foster choice, competition and lower premiums as a part of health insurance reform.

I do not think you need to be frightened by the election results in VA and NJ. You need to focus on doing the right things. An important 'right thing' for me is to support the current health care reform bill including the public option. I am currently living in South Africa where I can purchase affordable health insurance but I want to come home. I cannot do so until you make it possible for me to purchase health insurance.
Thank you.

Great work, Kathy. Now. when you get to be Speaker of the House, if you could just initiate and succeed in passing by 2/3 vote in both houses of Congress an amendment to the U.S. Constitution to eliminate the baseless judicial recognition of the "constitutional rights" of corporations and other non-natural persons that don't vote and corrupt perniciously our democratic republic. we'd be on the road to recapturing some control of our own destiny. ;-)

Corporations are paper fictions. Real people break the law.
They should go to jail. Corporations should not be able to write a check and go on as if they did no wrong!
