Mimi Kennedy and Tim Carpenter Urge a Single Payer Healthcare System

Submitted by Anna on Thu, 05/14/2009 - 19:36

On Wednesday, May 13, 2009, a rally was held on Capitol Hill advocating for a Single Payer Healthcare System. I talked with activists Mimi Kennedy and Tim Carpenter about the issue. Ms. Kennedy is an actress, author and a long time champion of progressive causes and also the Chair of the Progressive Democrats of America (PDA); and a proud member of the the Screen Actors Guild (SAG). Mr. Carpenter is the National Director of the Progressive Democrats of America. The spirited event was organized by the California Nurses Assoc/NNOC. The healthcare activists are supporting HR 676 and S 703, now pending before the U.S. Congress.
