SCHAKOWSKY SPONSORS RESOLUTION CALLING
FOR UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE BY 2008
WASHINGTON, DC - U.S. Representative Jan Schakowsky was joined today by over 50 members of Congress in introducing a resolution urging Congress to pass legislation that provides universal health care by 2008. Nearly 46 million Americans are uninsured and millions more are so poorly insured that they cannot afford to get sick or injured. In 2006, health care spending is expected to approach $2.2 trillion in the U.S., accounting for more than 16% of GDP.
