Two quick health care actions!

First, for those in the south-east and central U.S., the next Regional Healthcare Summit will be held on March 31 in Greensboro, North Carolina. Events kick off with a rally for single payer at the North Carolina A&T Alumni Foundation Event Center, 200 N Benbow Road, at 9 a.m. You can submit questions at www.healthreform.gov/regionalhealthforum.html.

The final summit will be held April 6 in Los Angeles.

We've posted a .pdf of our banner here. You can shrink the image at home to print, or take it to a copy shop to get it printed at 24 x 16 inches or larger. (Print out a small one and put it in your car window!)

And secondly, on April 1 in Washington DC, single payer activists will be organizing a briefing for members of Congress and their staff on "National Lessons for Health Reform: An Examination of US Health Insurance." The briefing takes place from 2:00 - 4:00 pm, in 2226 Rayburn Office Building. Call your Congressperson and ask that he/she attend or send a staff member.

Turnout to the last briefing, on the Massachusetts health care plan, was tremendous--the room was packed, according to attendees, with more folks listening in the doorway or waiting in the hall to get in. We can do it again--call today!
