We support a single-payer system because: LGBTQ Youth face an epidemic of homelessness. Transgender people are often without healthcare, jobs, or homes. LGBTQ families often lack legal protections to ensure health care coverage for all of their family members. Because the LGBTQ community is especially impacted by our country's lack of affordable quality health care, We the undersigned demand: 1. President Obama insist that a robust public option be a part of any health care reform options. 2. That major LGBTQ organizations speak-up in favor of a robust public health care option for the health of our community.

I was looking at the screen earlier and just felt totally overwhelmed by how far this has moved lately. It really makes me think about how much we need this to happen because so many people are struggling and just trying to survive out there.

Why is this even a debate anymore? Affordable care for everyone is the only way forward.

Please make this happen. Been paying out of pocket for way too long just to get the meds I need.

its about time everyone gets covered. nobody should be forced to choose between paying rent and seeing a doctor.

The system is straight up broken. So many kids on the street with nowhere to go and no medical support. This is pathetic for a country like ours.
