Health Care Reform Rally and Member with Members of Congress

For the last week, a group of health insurance company survivors have been walking from Philadelphia to Washington, DC - 135 miles in total. They're walking in honor of Melanie Shouse, a health care activist and Obama volunteer who had breast cancer and recently died because she couldn't find affordable health care.

When they get to DC, we need to be there to meet them and send a message to Congress: We voted for change. Listen to us, not the insurance companies. Pass health care reform that works for us, now.

Can you join us? Here are the details:

Where: Union Station - Washington, DC

When: Wednesday, February 24th - 12:00 pm

We will meet the marchers at Union Station at 12 pm and march with them the last mile to Capitol Hill, where we'll have a rally at the Dirksen Office Building (Room 50) with Members of Congress at 2 pm.

(Make sure to arrive a little early at Capitol Hill so you have enough time to get through security, and please don't bring any large bags, it can slow down the process.)

We need to stand together and make sure Congress hears us! No more excuses. We voted them into office for a reason - to bring change, and that starts with guaranteeing everyone quality, affordable health care.

We've got to stand up and make sure they don't turn back now, not when we're so close.
