Your Opinion Matters

“I know you would all like to see a really strong health care reform bill go through by the end of the year so that all of you can move on to the next causes that interest you,” said Chuck Bell, program director of Consumers Union, at a meeting sponsored by the Westchester/Putnam Access to Health Care Coalition.
“I want to remind you–social change takes time,” he said at the meeting, which was held Sept. 25, 2009, in Purchase, New York.
As a member of the audience, I was taken by Bell’s words, because I have encountered a good number of people who are feeling burned out and discouraged regarding what the reform bill may actually contain by year’s end.
