by Photos from CARA
California Alliance for Retired Americans (CARA) sponsored a demo in front of California Democratic Congressman Pete Stark's office in Fremont on July 30. Celebrating the 44th anniversary of Medicare with a birthday party theme, members of CARA and other activists demonstrated with an "Octopus of Evils" and a birthday cake.

Women from Global Women's Strike carried signs saying: "More health care is provided by women UNWAGED at home than all the health care industries".
