A Resolution of the Princeton Community Democratic Organization Relating to Health Insurance Reform in the United States.
WHEREAS, The PCDO believes that the current system of tying health insurance to employment is unsustainable; and
WHEREAS, Serious changes need to be made to address the rising costs of medical care and health insurance; and
WHEREAS, It is also unacceptable that, in the richest country in the world, 46 million of its population are uninsured; and
WHEREAS, Health care is an internationally recognized human right, not a privilege
RESOLVED by the Princeton Community Democratic Organization that we support the creation of a universal health insurance program.
