Support Parity for Mental Health - Today

03/05/2008

Dear Paul,

Today, you can build on the legacy of the late Senator Paul Wellstone.

Call or email GOP Representatives Michele Bachmann and John Kline today and ask them to support the Paul Wellstone Mental Health and Addiction Equity Act.

Why is the Wellstone Act important? Because this bill will end discrimination against people with mental illness and addiction by prohibiting insurers from putting different limits or financial requirements on treatment for mental health and substance abuse than other medical benefits. Simply put, it makes sure that people are treated equally.

The bipartisan Wellstone Act is coming up for a vote today and we need your help.

Please call or email Michele Bachmann and John Kline and ask them to do the right thing and support mental health parity today.

U.S. Representative Michele Bachmann:
In Minnesota at 651-731-5400 or 320-253-5931
In Washington, D.C.: 202-225-2331

U.S. Representative John Kline:
In Minnesota: 952-808-1213
In Washington, D.C.: 202-225-2271

Do your part to help honor Senator Wellstone’s legacy: contact Representatives Michele Bachmann and John Kline today.

Thank you,

Donna Cassutt
Associate Chair
Minnesota DFL Party

PS: This historic vote will take place today, so please call or email as soon as possible. Thank you!
