With an estimated 1.6 million Los Angeles County residents living without health insurance, Healthcare Reform is a TOP PRIORITY for the County's working families and a key issue being discussed this Labor Day.
On what is the eve of Congress' return to DC to debate healthcare reform, Angelenos will have the chance to participate in a creative approach to learn more about the importance of healthcare reform and to take action to be heard!
The day's events will kick-off with a PRESS CONFERENCE at 9:30 AM with Congresswoman Judy Chu. After the press conference, attendees will have the opportunity to:
- Watch FREE showings of Michael Moore's "Sicko" (presented with subtitles)
- Participate in Post-Screening Discussions with healthcare professionals and special guests
- Post their "I Got A Story" at the True Healthcare Confessions Cam booth and help make a "25 Reasons for Healthcare Now" video
- Get Hard Facts and Info about Healthcare Reform
- Call and Email elected officials at the Healthcare Action Kiosks
- Hang out at "Healthcare Beach" on the roof with DJs from soul sessions, HVW8, and KCRW's Jeremy Sole
