MUHCC at the Senate District 56 Picnic
MUHCC tabled at the Annual DFL Senate District 56 family picnic on Monday, June 22nd at Tartan Park in Lake Elmo. About 200 people were in attendance. Community Organizing Committee volunteers Ellen Lafans and Joan & Steve Janusz discussed health care reform and the Minnesota Health Plan. They met with people from the district, several gubernatorial candidates, and other state government leaders. Many present were familiar with the bill and others were interested in getting information. Though the support for single-payer was mixed, all agreed on the need for serious health care reform. Says Steve: "It was a fun time, and the brats and bean were excellent."
Ahhh, the days of summer as an activist...
