Reminder: Healthcare Forum with John Conyers Thursday

From Emily Langner

Open Health Care Reform Town Hall with Rep. John Conyers (D-MI)
May 28th at Wesleyan University’s Exley Science Center (6:30 PM), Middletown, CT


The public is welcome to attend a town hall-style health care open forum on Thursday, May 28th, at 6:30 PM, at Wesleyan University’s Exley Science Center.

Speaking on the panel are Representative John Conyers, author of HR 676, the US National Health Insurance Act, as well as Katie Robbins, Assistant National Coordinator for Healthcare NOW!, and Donna Smith, lobbyist for the California Nurses’ Association (CNA), and featured in the health care blockbuster SiCKO, as well as Connecticut’s local and national legislators, and local physicians.

Over 40 years ago, at the Riverside Church in New York, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., said, "Of all the forms of injustice, inequality in health care is the most shocking and inhumane."
