Let me update you all:
We had a very successful healthcare reform rally at State St. and Alpine Rd here in Rockford. After having gathered at the Unitarian Universalist Church, Rockford, IL to register, make signs, and listen to a speaker, we enjoyed the "honks for health care" we received.
In Rockford, people are up in arms about health care reform. This is what the people showed us.
I can recall listening to a woman at the light about health care reform. She had none and it was because of her job. She was angry and showed it.
This is what makes us organize around this issue and do something about it.
Stay tuned and interested.
On Saturday July 11th, 2009 at 12 PM I plan on showing Sicko by Michael Moore at Katie's Cup. Afterwards we will have discussion. Come on out. 502 7th St., Rockford, IL Right across from Amcore Bank.
