Call or Visit Sen. Begich's Office This Coming Week and Demand Action on Health Care Reform!

These three courageous Mat-Su Valley Democratic Party women all raised their hands at the monthly Egan Dinner in Wasilla yesterday evening. The woman in the middle, grinning widely, is Katie Hurley, the secretary of Alaska's constitutional Convention.

They, and dozens of others agreed to call, write or visit Alaska Sen. Mark Begich's office this coming week. They'll be demanding that Mark understand that the majority of people who voted for him want substantive health care reform.

Sen. Begich has not been at all forthcoming on how he is handling the battle. Meanwhile, he is taking in war chest money from companies and organizations standing against any change whatsoever, unless it materially benefits them, to the detriment of the American public.
