Senator Chris Dodd, a senior member of the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions (HELP) who has been asked by Chairman Kennedy to serve as his chief deputy for health reform, is hosting a series of town hall meetings across Connecticut on the issue.
The second stop on the "Prescriptions for Change" tour will take place:
Saturday, February 7, 2009
Doors Open at 2:30pm
***
Western Connecticut State University
Westside Campus Center Ballroom
43 Lake Avenue Extension, Danbury, CT
43 Lake Avenue Extension, Danbury, CT
***
Links to video from the first meeting in East Hartford can be found here, here, and here. (Thanks to CCAGOnline and CTLocalPolitics.net for their video.)

Glad that Dodd is doing this.
ReplyDeleteOn the other hand, this must be about the 17th health care "listening tour" to rumble through Connecticut in the last 6 months. What's left to be heard? Do we really have to trot out the same health care horror stories every week? Can't these "listeners" just watch/listen to the videotapes of the last tour?
It seems clear that the time for gathering evidence is well past. Any more "listening" starts to seem NOT like "Good, inclusive process," but, rather, delay, delay, delay.
How about "Action Tours" that start and stop in Washington and in Hartford? Fewer headlines, real results in fixing our health care system.
The very best of luck in staying-on, where ypu are so sorely needed.
