Health Care Committee

The Health Care Committee has been working to support passage and adoption of a single payer health care bill in California.  Committee members have been going out into the community to speak on what single payer is, why we need it, and how we can work to pass it.

In Summer, 2009, we are focused on the following activities

1. Show up for Pete Stark’s Town Hall meetings and outnumber the right wing “tea baggers”
