Doris Matsui to host healthcare townhall this Saturday

After holding two successful teletownhalls on healthcare reform, Sacramento Democratic Congressmember Doris Matsui is going to meet face-to-face with her constituents. Perhaps now that the craziness of August has died down, there can be a civil discussion at her event. If you live in her district, please try to attend and encourage her to support a robust public option, one tied to Medicare rates +5%. There is going to be a public option. We just have to make sure it's real one.

The state of our health insurance system impacts all Americans, insured and uninsured alike.  Throughout the national debate over health insurance reform, I have listened to and visited with many Sacramentans including community members, families, seniors, doctors, nurses and small business owners.  As the debate over health insurance reform continues, I would like to continue hearing from you about your thoughts, recommendations and concerns on this important topic.
 
This Saturday, October 10th, I will be hosting a public forum to discuss the health insurance reform legislation that is currently pending in Congress.  This forum will be held at Sutter Middle School in Sacramento, and will begin promptly at 11:00 AM.  Your input will play an important role as I consider the provisions of the proposed legislation.
