Feminists Turn Up the Heat for Healthcare
What will it take to achieve affordable quality healthcare for all? President Obama’s statements that his national plan would not provide insurance for undocumented immigrants or extend federal funds for abortions echoes the right-wing’s racist and sexist agenda. The Democratic-led congress has tried to distance itself from single-payer or a public option. Bring your ideas and strategies to this roundtable discussion on building a grassroots movement to guarantee universal coverage for everyone.
Before the meeting you are invited to share a delicious autumn buffet, with vegetarian option, a fundraiser for the organization, at 6:15pm for a $7.50 donation.
New Valencia Hall, 625 Larkin Street, Ste. 202, San Francisco, CA 94109 (Five blocks from the Civic Center BART station, and on the #19 and #31 bus lines.) For more info, call 415-864-1278 or email baradicalwomen@earthlink.net.
