CALIF ACTION ALERT--TODAY TUES. 8/18!!!!!!!!


Send President Obama a Single Payer Message
Californians want Single Payer Healthcare
SF Wednesday, Aug 19
6:30 to 7:30
 
Dear Single Payer Activist,
 
Help us send a message to Obama Deputy Chief of Staff Jim Messina that Californians want single payer healthcare.
 
He will be a featured speaker on Wednesday evening at the Bin 38 restaurant along with Organizing for America State Director Mary Jane Stevenson.  Bin 38 is located at 3232 Scott St in the Marina.
3232 Scott is between Lombard and Chestnut.  Scott St is one block east of Divisadero.
 
The event is a fundraiser sponsored by the Democratic National Committee and Organizing forAmerica.
We will have signs across the street.  We will not be there to disrupt the meeting, but to make clear that Californians want single payer healthcare.  Most of the people attending the event probably support single payer healthcare and are our allies.
 
We want HR 676, the US National Healthcare Act and we want passage of the Kucinich Amendment that allows states to enact their own state single payer plan.
 
Californian Democrats want single payer healthcare.  The California Democratic Party supports single payer.
The Democratic controlled legislature has twice passed single payer legislation. 
The City of San Francisco supports single payer healthcare.
 
That is the message that we want Deputy Chief of Staff Jim Messina to take back to the White House.
 
Suggested signs.
Healthcare Yes!, Insurance Companies No!
Californians Support HR 676.
Save Money, Pass Single Payer.
 
Please let us know if you can attend.
___ I plan to attend Wednesday's message rally.
___ I can help hold a banner.
___ I can help call our phone tree for those activists who do not have email.
 
Thank you.
