Important Message from the Campaign for Healthcare, Not Warfare
Dear Friend,
Your help is urgently needed!
On September 29, there will be a massive march in Washington D.C. to STOP THE WAR. Prior to this march, protesters will set up an encampment in front of the Capitol with the message to cut off the war funding and fund people’s needs.
As healthcare workers, patients, nurses, doctors, and healthcare advocates, we will be building a marvelous contingent that will highlight the issue of HEALTHCARE FOR ALL. We will also participate in the encampment where we will set up a special tent called: “HEALTHCARE AND THE WAR ARE ‘SICKO’”.
You don’t need to be a healthcare worker or a patient. If YOU are just plain fed up with the for-profit, anti-people, no healthcare system and YOU are sick of seeing billions of dollars used to cause suffering, death and destruction abroad, JOIN US!
In any case, HELP US!
Without your donations both small and large, we cannot make our voices heard. To be able to print the literature, signs, and banners; to be able to erect tents and more importantly provide transportation for people all across the country—we need funds.
It is the people that can and will make the difference. It’s your help that will make our voice powerful in Washington on September 29th.
Yours for a better world,
Sharon Black, R.N.

P.S.
We need to give a heartfelt thanks to Michael Moore for his ground breaking film ‘SICKO’ that stood up to the lies that are so prevalent about the U.S. healthcare system and that also allowed those who have suffered so badly at it’s hands to come forward with honesty and dignity.
Many of us who saw the movie cried and felt angry as we saw our own lives portrayed. The important task will be to turn our pain into action. Here (http://troopsoutnow.org/HWN.pdf) is a flyer that the campaign has been distributing at movie theaters and community events. If you haven’t seen the movie, go - and give everyone there a copy of the Healthcare Not Warfare flyer.
