I'm thankful that with health insurance reform...

twitter_bird2-1 copy.jpg Thanksgiving Day is more than just tradition -- it's a personal time of reflection for what to be thankful for. Starting on Thursday, November 19th, supporters of health insurance reform in Minnesota have been posting on Facebook and Twitter why they're thankful for with health insurance reform. We think this is a great idea--and something Twitter and Facebook users across the country should get involved in, to show how much unity and support there is for health insurance reform in every state.
