Health Care Community Discussion


Here is the history on this project:

 

(from mid December)

 

Peace Train Engineer Siri Vita will be moderating a discussion about health care reform in the US.  Please read on - and this notecard is available in SL from Siri as well.

 

This is part of The Presidential Transition Health Policy Team's effort in encouraging Americans to host and attend Health Care Community Discussion across the country between December 15h and December 31. These Community Discussions are part of the President-elect’s continuing effort to reach out and directly involve the American people in their own government. Health care is a top priority for President-Elect Obama, and he wants your help in designing a system that provides quality, affordable health care for all Americans. His nominee to be Secretary of Health and Human Services, Tom Daschle, is attending several Health Care Community Discussions. He and his Team will review the submissions from all of these gatherings. President-elect Obama wants to bring the voices and health care concerns of all Americans to Washington. On his behalf, thank you for helping to make this happen by participating in this Discussion.

 

In the course of this meeting we will engage in discussion about health care reform and draft a group submission with our findings and conclusions. This will help the Transition Health Policy Team flesh out key issues around health care and give the Team fresh ideas about the best way to promote the President-elect and Vice President elect’s vision of quality, affordable health care for all Americans.

 

Our meeting in SL will be on Monday, December 29th at the Port Spinoza Cafe. 7PM SLT
