Blog Launch!

The Health Care for Massachusetts Campaign is pleased to announce the launch of its campaign blog! Folks from the campaign will regularly update the blog with campaign goings-on and news. It’s the place to find all the latest campaign news and information.

Yesterday, campaign co-chair Barbara Roop appeared at a live New England Town Meeting on the Uninsured hosted by News Center 5's Natalie Jacobson (click here). After a comment made by Barbara on the need for a constitutional amendment, Natalie asked Senator Richard Moore, chair of the health care financing committee, whether he supported the health care constitutional amendment. He said he supports the amendment, and that he voted for it at the first constitutional convention.

Gov. Romney, Sen. Moore, John McDonough from Health Care for All, and others were on the program talking about various ways of reforming health care in Massachusetts. Everyone agreed that something must be done and that every resident in the state should have access to affordable, comprehensive and high quality health care coverage. The constitutional amendment will be the glue that holds the plan together, and makes sure that it is permanent fix to the state's health care problem. The amendment will be the permanent promise we make to ourselves and each other about the necessity of affordable health care for every Massachusetts resident.
