MAKE YOUR CALLS NOW
The last push is on for health care reform.
The Pennington County Democratic Party passed a resolution
at the county party meeting August 27 to support reform, including
a public option. Copies of the resolution have been sent to our
Congressional delegation, with thanks to Sen. Tim Johnson for
supporting reform, an urgent request to Rep. Stephanie Herseth Sandlin
to think about South Dakotans who are without health care options,
and a reminder to Sen. John Thune that some of us don't agree
that the health care system is fine.

Be personal in your message.
Do you have health care insurance? Is it affordable?
Do you have any stories to tell? Are your kids covered?
Do you operate a small business? Don't just repeat talking points,
tell them what it is to be in South Dakota with very few options
to acquire health insurance.
