SEIU to Congress: Don't Chicken Out on Healthcare
"It showed an incredible lack of appreciation for what most Americans
are confronting every day in this health care system," SEIU President
Andy Stern told The New Republic's Jon Cohn today about the report
that Congressional Democrats are maneuvering to lower public
expectations on their ability to achieve meaningful healthcare reform
in the months ahead. SEIU members and leaders reiterated their intent
to keep healthcare front and center this campaign season.
