Dr. Margaret Flowers, a leading single-payer, universal health-care-for-all proponent, wrote AfterDowningStreet.org:

We are holding a press conference in Washington this Tuesday. It is sponsored by the Gesundheit! Institute and Amnesty International and will kick off Artists for Guaranteed Health Care's first project: Faces of the Uninsured and Underinsured - a poster project which will put a human face on health care reform. This event will be filmed by a crew from New York who are wrapping up a movie on the underinsured.

We are inviting all health professionals and patients to join us for this event. We will meet outside the Rayburn House Office Building on the Independence Ave side at 9:30 am on Tuesday, July 28th and march into the building with Dr. Patch Adams. The press conference will start at 10 am in Rayburn 2226 with a panel discussion led by Dr. Adams. Several members of Congress, Donna Smith and others will attend.

We will then attend a hearing in Judiciary Committee on bankruptcy at which the contribution of medical debt to bankruptcy will be discussed. That starts at 11.

We hope that you can join us. Please pass this along.

Dr. Margaret Flowers
