HEALTH ACTION NEW MEXICO COMMUNITY MEETING
First Unitarian Church, Sanctuary
3701 Carlisle Boulevard NE
Albuquerque, NM (corner of Carlisle & Comanche)

It is time to move forward in New Mexico. Initiatives in other states although some may be incremental, are moving toward reform. The more New Mexicans voice their concerns to policy makers about the rising cost of health care and lack of access to health care, the more demand for this discussion.

WHO IS VINNY DE MARCO?
Health Care reform advocates across the country know his name and many have heard him speak. Now he is coming to Albuquerque to share his experiences with New Mexicans. The Citizens' Health Initiative is a coalition of organizations seeking to ensure quality, affordable health care for all Marylanders. The Initiative led the effort to pass the Fair Share Health Care Act that requires large corporations to spend a fair amount on health care. Vinny also consults for national organizations, such as the Campaign for Tobacco Free Kids, the Brady Campaign to Reduce Gun Violence, and the American Medical Society's Underage Drinking Reduction Project. He brings us vast experience in organizing issue campaigns and will be sharing his experiences with us. Do not miss this important event.
