Health Care

The Road Ahead

We met on the January 12th and discussed where we would be going in the year ahead. The Gainesville Group is going to take a detailed look at the issues that are on the minds of PWC residents. We’ll explore them, determine the points of view and attempt to organize forums, open to the public, to discuss and explain them.

To accomplish this goal, we have formed the Issues Committee consists of Carol, Judy, Suzanne, and Terry. They have been challenged to develop a method for identifying issues. Once this phase is underway we can look at how to research the identified issues, and begin thinking about appropriate forums.

The year ahead is going to be very exciting. We will have a finger on the pulse of Western PWC and be in a position to advocate for the kinds of policies and laws that will make a real difference in our community.

Our next meeting will be February 8th, 7 pm at Taste of Asian again. Hope to see you all there.

Enzi admits delaying health care bill his goal!!

Mike Enzi has finally admitted that his goal in the gang-of-six negotiations is to delay the bill and to make Democrats cut as many provisions as possible. Let’s end this charade – contact the white house and your legislators and tell them to abandon the futile effort at bi-partisanship and get the kind of bill Americans deserve not the bill Republicans want.
