Join Mad As Hell Doctors in Maryland and D.C., TOMORROW Sept. 30th

PDA Joins Mad As Hell Doctors March and Rally
in Maryland and D.C., TOMORROW Sept. 30th

Let's give the Mad As Hell Doctors a warm Maryland and D.C. welcome. We'll join them at stops in Frederick, Columbia, and Silver Spring. Then, we'll march and rally with them for Single Payer healthcare at the White House.

The Mad As Hell Doctors aren't going to take it anymore. They began a cross country tour August 28th in Washington State, and will arrive in Washington, D.C. on Wednesday, September 30th. Join us for their stops in Maryland and at their final destination: the White House.

The Care-A-Van will stop in Maryland on their way to a march and rally in D.C. We'll tell the President and Congress to deliver the reform we need: a national single payer health system. We've learned that single payer amendments will be offered on the floor of the House and the Senate. Join us and wear a white ribbon to show your support and so we can recognize you!

Maryland Stop #1 Frederick, Maryland, join us at the Fairground,
797 E Patrick St. from 9:30 to 10 a.m. Then, drive to Columbia (about 1 hour).

Maryland Stop #2 Columbia, Maryland, meet at the Columbia Mall, 10300 Little Patuxent Pkwy. (in front of J.C. Penny) from 11 to 11:30 a.m. Then, drive to Silver Spring (about 30 minutes).

Maryland Stop #3 Silver Spring, Maryland, park at a nearby metered garage and meet us at the Silver Spring Metro Station, 12 Noon and take the Red Line toward Shady Grove to Metro Center, switch to a Blue/Orange train, and then travel to the McPherson Square station. Come early (11:30 a.m.) and pass out single payer leaflets!

Parking Garages near the Silver Spring Metro station:
Network Parking: 1400 E West Hwy, Silver Spring, MD - 0.1 mi W
Central Parking Systems: 8401

Impark: 8403 Colesville Rd, Silver Spring, MD - 0.1 mi NE

Meet at McPherson Square at 3 p.m. to march down Vermont Ave. to the rally at Lafayette Square Park (across from the White House). The rally will start at 4 p.m. with music and exciting speakers.

Bring single payer signs and wear white ribbons--the symbol of the single payer movement. If you miss us at any of these stops, meet us by 3 p.m. at McPherson Square, to march or by 4 p.m. at Lafayette Square Park to rally.

Be part of history by getting mad with the doctors and to understand single payer well enough to argue for it, use the resources on PDA's Healthcare for All/Single Payer IOT pages. PDA is a Mad As Hell Doctors partner.

Thanks and see you there TOMORROW!
