OUR MISSION: Project EINO educates the public, encouraging state movements towards an equitable health care system guaranteeing universal access to care, to be accomplished by support of grassroots organizing. "Universal" is meant seriously and precisely, plans to reduce the number of uninsured by by 50 or 75 or even 90% are not plans for Universal Health Care --even though they will frequently make such a claim. Universal health care means All Americans or all residents of a given state will be included in the new system of access to high quality care, so that there will no longer be ANY persons uninsured, nor underinsured.
STRATEGIC KEY: The Right
to Health Care
We encourage all state UHC organizations to recognize that empowering the underprivileged in our society (ethnic minorities, low-income workers etc.) is key to our success. These sectors of society will become energetic proponents of this movement when we demonstrate our commitment to the "Right to Health Care" for all Americans, similar to the "Right to Education" on which American parents now depend. Some version of Single Payer health care would seem to fill the bill most clearly, most efficiently and with the most stability. We believe that calling for the commitment to the "Right to Health Care" should be primary and that arguments about how to achieve that goal should proceed thereafter. |

This weeks' quote (Jun 30):
"
A successful plan has to be revenue-neutral for the government over the next 10 years, and it has to reduce the total health care burden over the long term so the country doesn’t go bankrupt. The Senate committee plans failed both criteria. They would cost the government more than $1 trillion this decade and send total health care costs zooming at least twice as fast as the economy as a whole. Plans that SAVE the nation money though are 'not politically feasible'.
