Hubert Morel-Seytoux and Rich Watters, Co-Directors of Health Care for All's Mid-Peninsula Chapter, will discuss "Critical Condition: Health Care in the U.S. and the Efforts to Reform It"

Health care reform—so desperately needed in this country—is finally back on the national political agenda. It looks like it will even be a major issue in the coming Presidential elections. But that doesn’t mean we’ll get health care for everyone.

During this month’s forum, we’ll review the national proposals for reform. We’ll also take a look at California Governor Schwarzenegger’s recent proposal and compare it to the universal care system which passed the state legislature last year, only to be vetoed by the Governor. And we’ll learn about the continuing grassroots efforts to effect real change. Bring your questions, your comments, and your commitment to move this agenda.

The program will be broadcast and webcast live on Mid-Peninsula Community Media Cable Channel 27 and rebroadcast throughout March as part of the ongoing "Other Voices" television series produced by Peninsula Peace and Justice Center.
