How to achieve universal health care in Texas

This will be the first ever opportunity that Health Care for All Texas will have to talk about universal health care with legislators and their staff in Austin and to promote the Texas Health Insurance Plan: HCFAT proposal for how to achieve univesal health care in Texas.

We need AS MANY HEALTH CARE FOR ALL TEXAS MEMBERS as possible to attend the workshop in Austin and to volunteer to present TIP to legislators. Don't be scared or shy. Presentations are as short as 3 minutes. You will receive a script to read and will answer questions along with a whole group.

2. Hey, WHD-

I'm PM'ing you my e-mail address. This issue is a very important one for me. I am going to try to talk to Mr. LD, and see if he will accompany me. I'm not guaranteeing that I will be able to go to Austin, but I will certainly try. :hi:

3. Hey LD!

You should have the note by now. Acmejack is also going to try to go.

The issue is very important to me too as I have Crohn's disease and I only have health insurance thanks to pure luck, but family obligations will prevent me from going. Please give me a full report.
