Rally for universal health care Feb. 11 Health Care for All Oregon is organizing a rally on the Capitol steps in Salem Wednesday, Feb. 11, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., to call on lawmakers to create a universal health care system for Oregon. State Sen. Michael Dembrow was able to pass legislation in 2013 authorizing a privately- funded study of how to best fund a universal health care system in Oregon, but it would take $200,000 to fund the study, and the group has raised just $50,000 so far. Another bill will be submit- ted in 2015 to fund the remainder. Dembrow — the Legislature’s leading supporter of universal health care — will headline the Feb. 11 rally, which will also fea- ture jazz musician Norm Sylvester, the Raging Grannies, and “Mad As Hell Minutes,” an opportunity for participants to share their own health care stories. Health Care for All-Oregon is a grassroots coalition of over 100 organizations, including unions, businesses, non-profits and church groups. The group is or- ganizing bus transportation and car pools from Portland, Corval- lis, Eugene, Ashland, LaGrande and the Oregon Coast. Visit hcao.org to register. Low Prices!
