Update From Michigan

by Laura Nevitt | Monday, October 06, 2008

As the days are getting shorter and colder and campaign season is almost to an end, I am sure you are asking yourself - "What is Healthcare United in Michigan doing these days?"

The answer? A lot!

We are out talking to healthcare workers all over the state about healthcare and this election. Now is the time to make this happen - we have a unique opportunity this election to get folks into office who will truly fight for healthcare reform and it is incredibly important that healthcare workers make their voices heard.

How are we doing this?  Primarily and the most effective way is to call them and calling we are. The easiest way is to login to our online phone bank and make calls from the comfort of your home - just click on this link:

We also have phone banks running from our office every Thursday night at 6:30pm - come and join us!
Thursday, October 9th
Thursday, October 16th
Thursday, October 23rd
Thursday, October 30th

Lastly, we want to invite every healthcare worker we can find to attend a Healthcare Forum on Tuesday, October 21st.  Residents of CD9 will gather together to discuss the need for fixing our healthcare system and ask that Congressman Knollenberg join Gary Peters in signing the HCAN pledge - we hope you can join us.
