Confirmed: Dr. Margaret Flowers (Member of the Baucus Eight arrested at
Senate Finance Committee). $5 Suggested Contribution

Of all the proposals for healthcare reform, Single Payer (expanded and
improved Medicare for all) is the most efficient, most cost-effective,
and best approach. Why is it "off the table?" Big contributions to key
politicians from the for-profit insurance companies is a big part of the
problem. You can be part of the solution!

Learn about the pros and cons of various reform proposals, and get
involved with public advocacy. You don't have to get arrested, just help
inform those you know and tell your elected officials to put the public
interest above special interests and patients above profits.
