Health care reform die-in
|
Press release submitted by Josephine Underwood What: Health care reform die-in When: March 11th at noon Where: St John's Lutheran Church, 501-7th Avenue, Rock Island Why: A few weeks ago, Families USA released a report called "Lives on the Line". The report found that 10,800 Illinoisans under 64 years of age died prematurely due to lack of health care coverage between 1995 and 2009. With lives at stake, health care reform is a morale mandate. People are dying and are impacted daily by the status of our current health care system. Change needs to happen and it needs to happen now. People of faith are asking their elected officials to have political courage, vision, and leadership and mostly, to show compassion for those that don't have access to quality, affordable health care. Our Congressman need to support current reform legislation.
