| Now is the time to Donate! As Healthcare reform roars forward the time to donate to HUPAC has never been more important. HUPAC is the political action committee of the National Association of Health Underwriters (NAHU). HUPAC’s mission is to raise funds from NAHU members for the purpose of supporting the political campaigns of candidates who believe in private sector solutions for the health and financial security of all Americans.
Now is the time to Donate! Few other industries are as heavily regulated as health insurance. Our success and that of our clients is directly dependent upon the actions of Congress. Therefore, it is absolutely critical that we help candidates who support private sector health insurance.
Now is the time to Donate! HUPAC makes a difference by taking those resources and using them to counteract the strong and united forces of special interest groups that oppose the free enterprise system of Healthcare.
Now is the time to Donate! HUPAC is on a Million Dollar Mission. We need your help. Please contact Steve Salamon or go directly to www.hupac.org to donate. Thank you for your support of BAHU, NAHU, and HUPAC!
