Long story short: tell our government to keep medical debt out of credit reports, tell a big pharma CEO to stop overcharging for diabetes drugs, and tell big chemical corporations you want all the PFAS out of our drinking water. Use the email/petition tools in the following paragraphs to communicate your will.
Both More Perfect Union and People Power United help you tell our Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (or CFPB) to prevent big credit reporting corporations from using medical debt in their reports. Because people don’t accumulate medical debt because they’re “irresponsible”! People too often accumulate medical debt merely because some bankster manipulated a health insurance corporation into moving network boundaries around, so that what you thought your insurer covered, they now suddenly don’t cover! But banksters make bank getting health insurers to do that! I hope that helps them sleep every time a soldier’s prosthetic leg gets repossessed.
More Perfect Union also helps you tell Novo Nordisk director Lars Jørgensen to stop charging an arm and a leg for his diabetes drugs Ozempic and Wegovy. Because he charges a lower price for people in Europe than he does here! And that’s only because he can get away with it! But if we speak, in numbers they can’t deny, then they won’t be able to get away with it anymore! That’s the awesome power of the Big Stick of Bad PR, which has worked on other big pharma corporations that have unilaterally lowered drug prices in recent years. And $9 billion in profits after making a drug for $5/dose but selling it in America for $1,100/dose? We must shame whoever greenlit that! It’s the only civilized response!
Finally, Civic Shout helps you tell big chemical corporations that you want all the PFAS out of our drinking water. They’re saying our EPA, in issuing rules making them get all the PFAS out of our drinking water, “abused” their power; imagine standing before St. Peter and having to confess that you put polluters above regular folks! Folks who are already ingesting about a credit card’s worth of plastic every week on average from all the plastic in our foods and containers! And I know, it’s hard to get all those PFAS chemicals out of our water, since you find PFAS in almost anything you can name, but these corporations have a lot of money, so they also have the ability to get it out. Hey, this is America! The can-do country!
