Help Our Troops

Dear OpTruth Supporter,

Time is short, so I'll be blunt: Our Troops need your help now. This week, the President and Congress are faced with a choice to stand either with or against our Veterans. The Bush Administration recently admitted that they miscalculated the health care costs for Veterans of the War on Terror by at least $1 billion this year and $3 billion next year. That means four-out-of-five returning Veterans could be turned away from care at the V.A.
Well now there's something you can do about it! This week, you can make a difference by
donating in support of our new ad campaign

$12,000 will buy one, quarter-page ad in The Washington Post on an unspecified day. For $25,000, we get to pick a date when the ad is guaranteed to run, and given the timely nature of this issue, that could be crucial. But our goal is really to raise enough by Friday to run the ad as a full page this week: $95,000.
So please, send this email to your friends and family, and urge them to
support the Troops and fund our Veterans' health care system.

Sincerely,

Paul Rieckhoff, OIF VeteranExecutive Director

Great blog I hope we can work to build a better health care system. Health insurance is a major aspect to many.
