Landrieu on Health Care Gender Discrimination
October 28th, 2010 | 
Author: 
Senator Landrieu was one of nine women Democratic Senators to take to the senate floor on October 8, 2010 to address the issue of gender discrimination in health care.
Because women require more regular contact with their doctors during their reproductive years, they are regularly charged higher premiums than men. 40 states, including Louisiana, and the District of Columbia allow gender rating, under which insurance companies charge women more for the same coverage as men.
In Louisiana, all of the best selling insurance plans gender-rate, costing women up to 38% more than men who are in the same circumstance, same health and same geographic location.

Health Care Reform: The Hank Factor
In which John, who is kind of a fiscal conservative, uses the example of Hank to show how the current American health care system disincentivizes economic growth and entrepreneurship and argues that a public insurance option (even like the hodgepodge one in Montana) does not result in public bankruptcy but a more efficient and productive economy.

Healthcare Reform
In late march 2010 Congress passed Healthcare Reform, also known as Obamacare. President Obama signed this hugely unpopular Healthcare Reform bill into law, forever altering the American health insurance market. Amendment 63 is Colorado’s answer to Obamacare. This video paints the grim reality that awaits our future generations. Even though this video is lighthearted, don’t take our message lightly. For many, it could mean the difference between life and death.
