Bus from Boston for Health Reform Protest - March 9

Every day that we allow the insurance companies to obstruct health care reform, people are losing their insurance, their financial security, and even their lives. On Tuesday, March 9, we are going to Washington DC to put a stop to the insurance companies' continued efforts to kill health care reform - and we need you to join us.

Health Care for America Now and SEIU are organizing a free bus that will leave from downtown Boston at 11pm on Monday March 8 to take activists down to a protest march in Washington. You can join us! Email health.reform@cambridgesomervilleforchange.com for event details or look it up on facebook (event title:From Boston to DC: Get on the Bus for Health Care Reform).

On March 9, the health insurance lobby will hold their annual conference. We'll be joining thousands of other health care activists from around the country to take our message to the streets in protest! We'll be there to shut down their event and put the insurance companies and every corporate enemy of change on notice: We're tired of the gridlock in Congress and we won't allow the corporate lobbyists to keep bullying Congress into inaction - on health care and all of our issues.

Our dramatic action will send a clear message to Congress: Listen to everyday Americans, not the insurance lobbyists and pass reform that works for us, now. We've had enough of insurance companies' denied claims, inflated profits, and soaring premiums. We can't wait any longer. We need reform now.
