Transition team wants your input on health care policy

President-elect Obama is looking for your help in reforming the health care system to provide quality, affordable health care for all Americans. From now until the end of the year, you can sign up on the Obama-Biden transition team Web site to lead a Health Care Community Discussion in your home, community center, or even a local coffee shop. The site will provide you with a special moderator kit that will give you everything you need to get the discussion going — Sen. Tom Daschle (D.-S.D.), the leader of the Transition’s Health Policy Team, will even choose one discussion to attend in person.

Change.gov: the Obama-Biden Transition Team web site is a site for the Office of the President-elect and Office of the Vice President-elect. The Presidential Transition Act specifically authorizes the Administrator of GSA to provide services and support to the Office of the President-elect beginning the day after the election until 30 days after the inauguration to support the orderly transfer of executive power after a general election.

Maybe it’s just good politics, or the president-elect and vice president-elect just trying to make us feel like we’re part of the change to better health care. But heck, what’ve we got to lose? It wouldn’t hurt to get a Health Care Discussion going in our communities.

To sign up or for more information, go to change.gov.
