Come learn more about the Minnesota Health Plan

27 October 2009

Carleton Public Health Vista and ACE staff member Mohamed Bakri will be accompanying students to a public forum this Thursday, Oct. 29 at 6:30 pm about the Minnesota Health Plan, a statewide plan to provide comprehensive healthcare for all Minnesotans. State Senator John Marty will be present to discuss his proposal and field questions from the public. Interested Carleton students, faculty, or staff should contact Mohamed via e-mail. Transportation will be provided.

Confused by all the health care reform options being discussed at the federal level?  Come learn about a simpler solution, the Minnesota Health Plan (MHP).  State Senator John Marty will describe the bill he introduced in the state legislature.  The Minnesota Health Plan provides comprehensive affordable health coverage for all Minnesotans and removes the financial waste in our present health care.

Sound too good to be true?  Come learn how we can work together to reform health care in Minnesota and show the rest of the country how it can be done.

The forum will be at the Northfield Community Resource Center, 1651 Jefferson Parkway, Room 104 on Thursday, October 29th starting at 6pm with an informal gathering.  Senator Marty’s presentation begins at 6:30pm.  There will be time for questions and discussion after his talk.
