In 2009, President Obama signaled to Congress that he wanted to pass health care reform for all Americans. Campaign for Better Health Care held press conferences, rallies, and educational events all around Illinois to help pass health care reform. On March 23, 2010, President Obama signed into law the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, guaranteeing affordable, accessible, quality health care for all Americans. Now CBHC will be working to implement and improve health care reform for everyone in Illinois.

“Maybe it’s understandable what a history of failures America’s foreign policy has been. We are, after all, a country full of people who came to America to get away from foreigners. Any prolonged examination of the U.S. government reveals foreign policy to be America’s miniature schnauzer—a noisy but small and useless part of the national household.”
—P.J. (Patrick Jake)
“The fact that the mental health establishment has equated separation with health, equated women’s morality with soft-heartedness, and placed mothers on the psychological hot seat has taken a toll on modern mothers.”

“... we, like so many others who think more of working than of dying, care only to push on steadily, wishing less for cessation of toil than for strength to keep at it; and for wisdom to make it worthy of the ideal of labor and of life which we believe to be the most precious gift of Heaven to any soul.”
—Elizabeth Stuart Phelps (1844–1911)
“The reform [of the civil service] should be thorough, radical, and complete.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
