Today's single payer post: local action

Board meeting all day friday, but that never feels like work. We're discussing healthcare reform again, more specifically the glaring fact that our local has not taken a formal position on it. We had a short presentation on HR 676 in march and i proposed we officially make a motion of support, but got shot down..Lots of people saying they didn't have enough information. Well believe me...they'll not be able to say that THIS time. I've got about a ream of paper ready to distribute this time, and am not even about to let it go without a hell of an argument...Fun times, man.

In a situation like this you might want to prepare the ground before the meeting. If you have an email discussion group, or even if you just have a few emails of the members, you might send a useful link such as this video
