Huge health care votes are expected the last week in July. So on July 23rd, we're organizing letter delivery events at Senator Bill Nelson's Coral Gables office at 2925 Salzedo Street at 4:00 p.m., Thursday, July 23rd. to urge him to stand up in support of real health care reform, including a strong public health insurance option.

A strong public option must meet four key criteria: it should be national, available to anyone, ready on day one, and publicly run. No weak half-measures--like the regional, private co-op plan--are acceptable.

We'll hold a media event and then go inside to meet with staff to deliver a letter laying out the four keys to a strong public option. To make the events even more powerful, we'll recruit folks from the community who have powerful stories to tell about the need for health care reform.

Also, we had 10 counter-protesters from the South Florida Tea Party, (their website at: www.NOGovernmentHealthcare.com.) Their website starts with "NO" and that's the only thing the Republican Party stands for these days.
