Klobuchar tele-town hall meeting Sunday, 8/23, at 7 PM

[mascarax]

Telephone town hall by Amy...I signed up. Note the special guests (hmm...).
When I visited her office last week, we pressed her aides on holding a town hall. No stated support specifically for the public option though. As expected...<sigh>

Details:

U.S. Senator Amy Klobuchar will be hosting a live statewide tele-town hall meeting to discuss making health care more affordable and answer questions from her constituents. Joining her will be Dr. Denis Cortese, CEO of the Mayo Clinic in Rochester and Mary Wakefield, the highest ranking nurse in the federal government.

The tele-town hall will be held on Sunday, August 23, 2009 at 7:00 p.m. Central Time. Those wishing to participate can register for the call by registering <see link below>. The deadline for registering for the call is Friday, August 21, 2009 at 12:00pm. Those who register will receive an automated reminder phone call on Friday evening and then a call on Sunday to be joined to the call.

1. I have signed up too and been confirmed

I received an email from Klobuchar's office notifying me about because I am someone who "has contacted us about healthcare". I don't expect a lot from it as there's going to be so many people on the line but I'll be "there" just on the chance I get the opportunity to give my $.02.

I hope a lot of single payer advocates get on the line but, being a cynic, I imagine the fix will be as far as who gets to say anything.
