On June 6th, thousands of people just like you are beginning to organize for healthcare reform by hosting or attending a Healthcare for Organizing Kickoff with Organizing for America.
This moment is critical. This summer, President Obama will be working to pass healthcare reform that reduces cost, guarantees choice and ensures all Americans have quality, affordable healthcare--and he can't do it alone.
This is something Obama has been planning for since before the election, with the aim to continue the grassroots advocacy that the former Illinois Senator began in his presidential campaign. In a call to members of Organizing for America, Obama said, "If we don't get it done this year, we're not going to get it done," adding, "I think the status quo is unacceptable and that we've got to get it done this year."
No experience is needed to host or attend - you'll get everything you need to make it a success. At these Organizing for America kickoffs, you'll watch a special message from the President, meet like-minded supporters in your neighborhood, make plans for reaching out in your community--and start to put those plans in action.
We can win healthcare reform in the same way we won the election: building support one block, one neighbor, one conversation at a time. Please join us by signing up today: http://action.seiu.org/June6

Kate,
Really enjoy your Twitter and Blog writing. I had wanted to email you, but for whatever reason there's no contact for you guys on SEIU blog. I just wanted to let you know that I started a blog a couple of weeks ago devoted exclusively to EFCA. It's not advocacy based, but I'd like to think it's even-handed (overall, I'm a supporter of the bill). I do think it's the best analysis you'll find on the web right now.
Don't know if you can add it to your blog roll, but if you even had the chance to check it out I'd be honored. Thanks for taking the time to read this, and keep up the good writing.
