• Once again the president and congress are not including any discussion of the only real solution to America's health care problems - expanding and improving Medicare to cover everyone in America. On February 25th, the Leadership Conference for Guaranteed Health Care will be holding a "Sidewalk Summit for Improved Medicare for All" outside the Blair House in Washington, DC before the Democrats and Republicans have their session. If you are able to be in Washington, DC meet us at 9 AM at the White House. Specific meet up details will be announced as the event gets closer. Find out how an improved Medicare for All system will meet Preident Obama's goals for a health care system that works for the American people.
• Our "democracy" looks more like a party for the mega-corporations and conglomerates. At this moment, the big banks are successfully gutting consumer protections from a bill in Congress that is supposed to fix the problems leading up to the economic crisis. Fight corruption!
• Money is not speech, and human beings, not corporations, are persons entitled to constitutional rights. Sign the motion to amend the constitution

Ask President Obama to meet with leaders of the single payer movement.
Since President Obama's State of the Union, Dr. Flowers has been trying to respond to his request for "better ideas" on health care reform. She went to the White House the day after the speech but they refused to take her letter. The next day, she and Dr. Carol Paris were in Baltimore outside the Republican Caucus meeting where Obama spoke trying to give White House staff materials on "a better way" to reform health care. They were arrested. Inside, President Obama once again asked for "better ideas," especially those supported by doctors and nurses he added.
President Obama - why are you not listening to us?
"Citizens United" Disaster Spreads, Resistance Builds
Mar 9, 2010 — KZeeseBy David Swanson
Free Speech for People
The damage from the Supreme Court's decision in "Citizens United v. FEC" continues to spread as feared. Newly emboldened corporations are suing to overturn state laws that restrict corporate spending on politics:
"A pro-natural resource development group [how's that for spin?] and a Bozeman painting company asked a Helena District Court on Monday to strike down Montana’s 1912 ban on corporate donations and expenditures to political campaigns to comply with a January U.S. Supreme Court ruling."
