take a break for health care

11.17.03

Every candidate for political office is talking about health care reform. Often they roll out elaborate schemes with much fan fare about how “their plan” will fix the system.

So how can you as a health care consumer best make sense of all these complicated plans?

Jobs with Justice—a coalition of labor and community organizations working together to build support for the struggles of working people—with support from the MNA will use the weeks of November 17 through December 5 to provide people with a simple framework for understanding different approaches to health care reform.

During this time, union stewards and community leaders across the state will ask people to "take a break" to discuss the current health care crisis and how to work together in order implement a health care reform that protects everyone.

This activity is designed to only take about 10 minutes, hence the "Take a Break for Health Care" theme.

Please take 10 minutes to review the following educational flyers, as well as to vote for and pledge support to the health care reform initiatives.
