Action Against Blue Cross Blue Shield Tomorrow!

Sep 22 2009

 "Big Insurance: Sick of It" Rally in Denver!

Advocates of universal Single-Payer health care - the only realistic reform - are taking action tomorrow, September 22, 2009, with a rally to highlight private insurance corporations' role in the denial of healthcare - this time focusing on Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield. 

When: Tuesday. September 22 at 12:00 P.M. high noon!

Where: The Wellpoint Building, 700 Broadway Street, Denver, Colorado. The Wellston Building is between Broadway and Lincoln (southbound and northbound one-way streets if you don't know the area) between 7th and 8th, and it's a large building that you can't miss just north of Speer Blvd.

What: "We'll hear stories from individuals who are suffering under our broken health care system, and deliver a letter to Big Insurance, demanding that they stop denying us care."

Organizer: Service Employees International Union (SEIU) and Change That Works.

Everyone impacted by the insurance companies' greed is most certainly invited.

 

Also, tonight - if you read this in time - for those who live in Colorado's House District 37, which is the Centennial and Southglenn area, your State Representative, Spencer Swalm (Republican), is having a Town Hall Meeting at Southglenn Library in the new mall area, at 7:00 P.M. for a discussion on Health Care in Colorado. Kaiser Permanente will be there to discuss electronic records. 

Swalm is a proponent of employer-provided health insurance and helped lead the opposition to House Bill 1273, the Colorado single-payer health care bill that would have, and still might (2010 cycle) implement health care for all people in Colorado.
