Health and Social Security Committee

Helmed by Marge Raphael and Rochelle Lipkowitz, the Healthcare and Social Security Committee has been a stalwart defender of the social safety net. The committee has been tireless in writing to and meeting with local and national legislators to ensure that social programs like Social Security and Medicare that we have in place are protected and expanded. The group went to Washington to demonstrate in support of the Affordable Care Act and it has vowed to finally make universal healthcare coverage the unalterable law of the land.

For 15 years we have been in your corner fighting the good fight. Once a month we present a speaker on a topic of timely interest and we challenge you to act. We occasionally have special weekend or evening events so more people can get involved with us and what we do. Our committees work tirelessly contacting legislators, writing to publications and at times putting bodies on the line to make change happen. But we cannot do this without you. Come to our meetings. Participate in our actions. But most of all support us financially. A year long membership costs only $45. You can make a check out to Reach Out America and mail it to P.O. Box 222057, Great Neck, New York, 11022 or simply click the donate button at left to pay online. (Please include the word "membership" in the space below the dollar amount marked "special instructions to the seller"). It's a small price to pay to protect our health, our freedom, our constitution, our country and our world.

Flipping the Senate

Reach Out America is working to flip the Senate. As you may or may not know, the present numbers in the senate are 53 Republicans and 47 Democratic/Liberal Senators.
Please work with us and donate whatever you can to the campaigns of the Democratic candidates.

Democratic candidates who are ahead, tied or slightly behind their Republican opponents:

John Hickenlooper (Hickenlooper.com) – Colorado - as of May 6th he was +18 ahead of Republican incumbent Cory Gardner
Mark Kelly (Votemarkkelly.com) – Arizona – as of June 2nd he was +9.8 ahead of Republican incumbent Martha McSally
Amy MGrath (Amymcgrath.com) – Kentucky – very close race against Mitch McConnell as of 6/8/20. Republican super PACs controlled by Mitch are pouring millions into the campaign for Mitch. Ditch Mitch!
