Health Care for America NOW! Stand Up for Change!
Come to Washington, DC - June 25th, 2009
Time for a Road Trip to DC!!!
From HealthCare09.org:
On June 25th, 2009, thousands of grassroots people will descend on Washington, DC to lobby every Member of Congress in support of quality, affordable health care for all. We will also have a rally at 11:30 in Upper Senate Park and following there will be lobby activities in various locations.
Delegations of community leaders from over 40 states are attending in order to meet with key Members of Congress. The people comprising these groups include small business owners, rural representatives, faith leaders, health care providers, and others. Other event participants have been recruited from our 1000+ Member organizations including labor unions, grassroots community organizations, on-line groups, and faith communities.
The program on this day will begin at around 11:30am, with a large rally in Upper Senate Park which will feature variety of speakers from Washington, DC and the states. Following the rally, groups will visit with Members of Congress during scheduled or unscheduled visits and, in some cases, Town Hall Meetings. Our day will end at around 5pm, so that attendees to can travel home via plane, car, train or bus.
We'll make sure Congress knows exactly where the American people stand. But we need your help to make this event a success. If you can attend, volunteer, or help organize, follow the links above for more
