East Alabama Leaguers Attend Hearing on Health Care

Nearly a dozen members of the East Alabama League were part of an overflow crowd that assembled in the meeting room of an Auburn retirement home to hear Third District Representative Mike Rogers speak and take questions on health care. Although no leaguers got to speak, LWVAL Co-president Charlotte Ward was able to give Mr. Rogers a copy of the LWVUS statement on health care.

If any other Leaguers have the opportunity to meet with their congressman, it would be a good idea to take the LWVUS statement along.   See the box below for a copyable form. The LWVUS website also provides the following comments that may help in supporting health care reform along the lines of the League position.
