HealthCare Protest

There are 2 Healthcare Protest being held this weekend. One is Friday, 3/19, and the other is Saturday, 3/20 both to be held at the Federal Courthouse in Tampa.

Kathy, from our group, has been camping out at the Courthouse since Tuesday. Kathy has a family, and work, but has put her life on hold to be camping out at the Courthouse to protest this healthcare bill. If Kathy can spend 5 days protesting surely we can spend one or two day protesting this healthcare bill.

On Saturday, people will start meeting at the Federal Courthouse in Tampa at 9:00 a.m. Bring your signs, flags and cameras.

They want to vote on the healthcare bill on Sunday. If you don't want this healthcare bill then show up for both days if possible, if not at least one of the days. Anytime on Friday and Saturday. We need to be sure Obama and Congress hear us.

    Although there are SOOOOOO many issues, Kathy would appreciate it if you would keep your signs to the Healthcare Bill.

    It was a great protest. We had a great turnout, and people were very supportive. There was a lot of honking in support of our protest. We even had 3 people from the Sarasota area. Even though it was a Saturday there was plenty of traffic, and plenty of people saw us out there.
