Gaining Momentum for the Public Option - AFC Needs Volunteers!


By Pistol Pete - Posted on 23 October 2009

Volunteer
for Health Care Reform at AFC

 

 

As
AFC has stated
, it cannot be emphasized enough how transformative
comprehensive health care reform will be in the fight against HIV and AIDS.

 

The Public Option – the Comeback Kid of Health Care Reform,
2009. Citing intense pressure from liberal democrats, Senate
leader Harry Reid indicated
that he is leaning towards keeping the public
option in the final Senate bill, which he is drawing up in the coming weeks. We can
make this a reality
.

 

As the Senate Whip, our very own Sen. Durbin has the power
to tip the balance. We must continue to pressure Sen. Durbin to push for a
strong public option!

Please volunteer for our phone bank on Wednesday, October
28th from 5:30-8:30pm
as we continue to urge Illinoisans to call
Sen. Durbin in support of a public option. It’s fun, easy, and you get free
pizza! Even if you can only make it for an hour or two, please
RSVP to come.
