Dear Alliance Conference Call Participant, Thank you for participating in the October 28th Alliance national conference call on healthcare reform. Your questions and input are pivotal to ensuring passage of healthcare reform that improves Medicare and creates a public option. In response to several requests, a link to the video featuring Alliance President Barbara Easterling and AFSCME President Gerald McEntee that dispels many of the popular myths about seniors and healthcare reform is included in this email. Please click here to view the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vrfRV-_832I An additional link to the "Seniors to Seniors: Informing Health Reform" video that was produced in cooperation with many of our partners is also included in this email. This video features Alliance Executive Vice President Judy Cato and Alliance member Phil Feaster as well as other seniors discussing why healthcare reform is important to them. Attached to this email is a toolkit for using this video to educate other seniors in your community on their stake in healthcare reform. Please click here to view the video: http://seniorstoseniors.org/ If you would like copies of these DVD mailed to you please contact our office soon as we have only limited supplies left.
