Corporate special interests and ideological extremists have called out the troops. Last week the New York Times reported that members of Congress have been shouted down, hanged in effigy, and taunted by crowds at town-hall-style meetings on healthcare reform.1 Lies are flying: Former Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin is even erroneously claiming that healthcare reform would set up a "death panel" so bureaucrats will decide who is worthy of healthcare. 2

We can't let our children's and families' futures be torpedoed by a bunch of hooligans and patently false rumors! No, the rowdy opponents of healthcare reform may have loud voices and a few punches to throw, but they don't have the power of the truth and of over a million MomsRising members determined to protect the economic security of our children and families. Yes, I bet each of us has at least a hundred people we can reach through our parent groups, school lists, soccerlists, friends and family. Let's drown out those bullies with common sense, civility, and the facts.
