Most Republicans were too embarrassed to publicly support insurance industry price-gouging. But not Republican leader John Boehner, who was one of 19 Republicans to vote against the bill. Click here to see our new ad calling him out

Hi,
Unlike just about every other industry in America, health insurance companies are completely exempt from antitrust laws.
They can establish monopolies and raise rates without having to worry about competition, like Blue Cross just did in California, where they’re raising premiums by up to 39% for some customers.
But the House, led by freshman Rep. Tom Perriello, just passed a bill to strip them of their special exemption by 406-19. Can you join me in pressuring the Senate to follow the House’s lead by signing this petition? http://pol.moveon.org/perriello_antitrust/?r_by=19140-9640874-LO_p2_x&rc=confemail
Thanks!
