Currently, United Healthcare is scheduled to celebrate MLK Jr. Day as a company holiday starting in 2009 in order to reflect the company's stance on diversity. This petition is being formed to request that the executives of UHC remove MLK Jr. Day as a company holiday and replace it with Veteran's Day in remembering the 250 years of men and women, black and white, who sacrificed and sometimes died in the service of thier country.

The feedback from coworkers continues to build as more of you step up to support this change. Please email your department heads today to ask why our veterans are excluded from the company holiday calendar. We need to keep the pressure on until leadership provides a clear answer.

My dad served 20 years and its insulting that he gets ignored like this. veterans deserve the day off more than anyone.

Its about time we honored the people who actually fought for our freedom. Should have been a holiday long ago.
