Photos of today's rally in San Francisco, part of a national action with the rallying call:
Put Single Payer on the Table for Discussion! Support HR 676!


A group of supporters of Single Payer Health Care rallied in front of the Federal Building which houses Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi's office. They demanded that Pelosi foster a discussion on the Single Payer legislation, HR 676, the US National Healthcare Act.

Single Payer means real health care for ALL and some of the signs at the rally told the story best. In top photo a woman carries a placard that includes many posters, one of which says:

Obama Liar on Single Payer
2003 "The Best" 2009 "Get Lost".
