Event: Ending Wall St. Healthcare with Dr. Margaret Flowers

Dr. Flowers is one of the Baucus 8 who disrupted the Senate Finance Committee hearing during the creation of the Obama health plan because they failed to consider single payer as an option. She has spoken on PBS’s Bill Moyers Journal, Democracy NOW and numerous progressive health events. Currently, she has organized NOW DC, which supports people power to create a sustainable planet and to change the corporate influence on our politics.
