HCAN Feb 17 To The Streets!
http://healthcareforamericanow.org/page/s/streets

In 2008, we voted for change.

We voted to reign in Wall Street. We voted to create jobs for working families. We voted to do something about climate change. And workers rights. And getting corporate money out of Washington. And we voted to finally give everyone in America the right to quality, affordable health care.

Whatever we voted for, it's all at risk right now.

The danger of health reform stalling or Congress missing the opportunity altogether is real. The longer it takes, the harder it will be to finish reform right. And if Republican obstructionists and their insurance company buddies succeed in killing health care reform and preserving the status quo, the political will for passing any of the other things we voted for plummets. That's why we need you to take the fight to the streets. The entire progressive agenda is at stake.

On February 17th, we're going to be rallying all over the country to demand Congress deliver the change we voted for. We need you to join us. Can you come? Click here to sign up.

In 2008, people from all over the country, all walks of life, all ages and races, voted for change. It's now up to Congress to ignore the Republican obstructionists and corporate lobbyists and deliver the change we voted for. Congress must get it done now, and get it done right.

So we're taking it to the streets!

We're planning rallies all over the country for Wednesday, February 17th. They're going to be big and they're going to be loud. We're going to stand together and send an unmistakable message to Congress that they must deliver.

We need your help with those rallies.

We need you to attend one in your area. If you can, we need your help to spread the word to your friends, your family, your neighbors, and others so we can make sure Congress gets the message. If you want to, we'll also help you organize your own rally to make sure we get the change we voted for.

Can you sign up to come or volunteer at one of these rallies? Click here to sign up.

The future of the entire progressive movement depends on getting health care finished and finished right. Congress needs to hear that this country voted for change, and they must deliver.

We need you to help us send that message. Click here to sign up to attend a rally in your area.

We'll be putting up rally locations and times by the end of the week, and we'll email you with more information. But for now, we must start organizing to take the fight to the streets!

To your health,

Levana Layendecker

1. Good Luck to those who are taking it
to the streets for Health Care!

We should be out there counteracting the teabags who want to be owned by corporations.

2. They've been at the core of this fight all along
The unions back this group, for the most part. I wish we'd get a little coordination with OFA.
