Let's Shake it up for Single-Payer!
A bunch of us are staging a demonstration to let our Congressmembers know that we want single-payer healthcare.
Among the demonstrators are artist-activists Dina Lydia of Citizen Artiste and international bellydance star Delilah of Visionary Studios and her rose-clad minions.
This demonstration is sponsored by Single Payer Action, a national non-profit seeking to implement a single payer health insurance system in the United States. Please sign their petition!
If you can be downtown on Monday the 27th, please support us!

Some basic facts here to hand out:

We know 7th District Rep. Jim McDermott is on board as a longtime leader in health care insurance reform, but other Washington Reps and Senators - not so much.
We invite you to join us as we use our talents to draw attention to this important humanitarian issue -- and have fun! Wear a costume and dance with us! (Guys too!)
If you have suggstions for the demonstration, additions, or corrections, please let me know.
