H. R. 676 is imperative for our nation because the current health care plan that the United States has leaves many of America's children sick and uncared for because they cannot afford medical services or products.
If America is such a wonderful and powerful country, and if Lady Liberty's inscription, “give me your tired, your poor..” rings true, then why wasn't a bill such as H. R. 676 already a part of our country?
More affordable, if not completely free, health care is not unreasonable. More importantly, it is a necessity and a right of all human kind to be able to take care of itself.
