Health Care for America Now (HCAN) is a progressive political coalition of more than 1,000 organizations that joined together in 2008 in a successful effort to promote legislation to overhaul the United States health care system and extend medical benefits to most of the population that is currently uninsured. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA or ACA) was signed into law by President Barack Obama on March 23, 2010, and HCAN was credited with being a "major contributor" to its passage. After enactment of the law, HCAN shifted its activities to defending the law from opposition attacks and advocating for the law before Congress and federal and state regulatory agencies. ==Organization== HCAN is directed by a steering committee that consists of a wide range of tax-exempt public charities, advocacy organizations, labor unions and civil rights groups. HCAN is a 501(c)(4) issue advocacy organization that runs national and state-based legislative and regulatory campaigns through grassroots action, public education, aggressive media outreach, research and policy analysis. It works in cooperation with its 501(c)(3) partner, Health Care for America Education Fund, a project of the Tides Center, a public charity.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=More About HCAN )〕 The "national organizations" that are members of the umbrella group is composed of the following organizations:〔(Member Organizations, National Organizations )〕 *9 to 5, National Association of Working Women *Abundant Children and Family Services *Adventists Community Services *AFL-CIO *AIDS in Action *Alliance for a Just Society *Alliance for Retired Americans *American Academy of Family Physicians *American Academy of Nursing *American Academy of Pediatrics *American Family Voices *American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees *American Federation of Teachers *American Federation of Television and Radio Artists *American Medical Student Association *American Nurses Association *Americans for Democratic Action *Americans United for Change *AskSlim.org *Asian and Pacific Islander American Health Forum *Association for Better Insulation *Black Women’s Health Imperative *Brave New Films *Bus Federation *Cafemom.com *Campaign for America's Future *Campaign for Community Change *Campus Progress Action *CareTALK *Center for American Progress Action Fund *Center for Rural Affairs *Center for Science in the Public Interest *Center for Social and Economic Justice *Child Advocate Network *Children’s Defense Fund *Communications Workers of America *Committee of Interns and Residents/SEIU Healthcare *Commonwealth Institute *Communications Workers of America *Community Action Partnership *Community Service Society *Clergy Strategic Alliances, LLC *CREDO Mobile *Democracy for America *Democracia Ahora *Direct Care Alliance *Eagle Medical Services *Human Rights Campaign *Leadership Center for the Common Good *Leadership Conference on Civil Rights *League of United Latin American Citizens *MoveOn.org *National Abortion Federation *National Association for the Advancement of Colored People *National Council of Jewish Women *National Council of La Raza *National Congress of American Indians *National Education Association *National Women's Law Center *Planned Parenthood Federation of America *Progressive Future *Rock the Vote *Service Employees International Union *UAW *United Food and Commercial Workers *USAction *Women's Voices.
