DESCRIPTION:On Saturday December 19, the San Francisco-based grass-roots health reform 
 organization "Single Payer Now" holds it's Annual Potluck in San Francisco, 
 at St Mary’s Cathedral at Gough and Geary at 3pm;  confirmed speakers:  
 Assembly Member Tom Ammiano from San Francisco and Congress Member Eric 
 Massa from New York.  Massa was one of two co-sponsors of the single payer 
 bill in Congress, HR 676, which would provide health care to everyone in 
 the country and eliminate the insurance industry.  Massa also voted against 
 HR 3962, the recently passed House health reform bill which, in his words: 
 “…will enshrine in law the monopolistic powers of the private health 
 insurance industry.”  Ammiano, when he was on the SF Board of 
 Supervisors, was the author of the ordinance that created "Healthy San 
 Francisco";  and strongly supports California's single payer bill, SB 810.  
 Single payer legislation has been passed twice by the California 
 legislature--and vetoed twice by Governor Schwarzenegger.  There is no 
 admission charge, but please bring a potluck food item to share.   For more 
 information, contact Don Bechler, Chair of Single Payer Now, 415-810-5826, 
 , or www.singlepayernow.net     \n \n
