RALLY Against the Media Blackout of the Single-Payer Solution to the
HEALTH CARE CRISIS!
End Corporate Welfare!
We Want Single-Payer Health Care!
DATE: July 15th
TIME: 12pm
PLACE: Tribune Building
435 N. Michigan Ave.
The crisis in health care is worse than ever. Millions of people have lost their jobs and with it health insurance because of the economic crisis. Now over 50 million have no health insurance. The Institute of Medicine estimates that 22,000 die every year due to lack of access to health care. President Obama and Senator Max Baucus have excluded the voices of single-payer supporters in the national discussion on health care reform. They said a single-payer system is “off the table.” The way to get single-payer on the table is to keep up popular pressure. The majority of people and doctors in this country want single-payer, a government financed system that gets rid of the private insurance industry once and for all. Help us put the pressure on our media to show our elected officials what we want by joining us for a demonstration.
