This Thursday many Wisconsinites will converge on the

investigation into the Downing Street memo. It is
hoped that hundreds will join us to help support
John Conyers' call for an investigation into the
Downing Street Memo.

At 5:30 we will march down State St. to the UW Library
Mall in a show of support and solidarity with those
marching in Washington DC and throughout the country.
It is our earnest hope that our voices will combine
into a noise big enough to be heard by our leaders,
and our media.

Please distribute this information widely.

Over forty million people in this country have no health insurance. Many individuals in this country who have health insurance get denied necessary medical procedures due to 'pre-existing conditions'. Many more citizens are required to pay deductibles that cost up to tens of thousands of dollars for major operations . The United States has a health care program that overall ranks below some developing countries and far below most industrialized nations.

The time has come for a single payer reform to the current health care structure. The current system penalizes poor and sick individuals. A single payer health care system is the only proven method of health coverage that includes everyone, is cost effective, and does not rely on the profit motives of insurance companies.
