Next Steps
There are several steps that I think can be taken to support
Obama because of his work on Obamacare [the Affordable Care Act (ACA)] My
understanding is that Obama has embraced the term Obamacare.
·
Encourage folks who support Obamacare to actively
volunteer to support Obama and/or Obamacare, by making
phonecalls, canvassing, making contributions, posting signs, etc.
· Convince
folks who might be reachable of the advantages of Obamacare. I have
thoughts on this, but welcome suggestions on how to do this.
Here are a few steps that are more specific along these
lines.
·
Send messages to all the folks we know that we think might be
interested, encourage them to support health reform and/or Obama.
·
Share key literature with these folks and/or the information sources
mentioned below..
·
I have a list of 900 folks in Montgomery County that support Obamacare.
We could call that list and encourage them to volunteer to support Obama.
Calls can be made at the Obama office in Kensington or from home.
·
Identify other organizations and individuals that we could work with
I welcome other suggestions
·
on things we can do,
· on
ways to implement these actions
Please indicate which of the above activities you are
willing to be involved .
2) Information Sources
Here are few
ideas on sources of information that you can use to support the above. I
have a blog in which I post a few times per week. I will send you a few
of the most important in the future as we proceed. These posts are brief
and cover some of the most important articles, etc that I have seen
lately.
a)
For a recent Celebration of the Supreme Court Decision on Obamacare, I
prepared a summary of the law and list of key reference materials which can be
found at the following:
At the celebration on 7/17, we first called folks in
Montgomery County who were known supporters of Obamacare and asked them to be
volunteers for the campaign. We had almost 30 folks at the party, and
made over 200
phone calls in 90 minutes.
Please let me know your comments on the materials on this blog
post, on how to use them, etc.
b)
For those who want to keep up with
health care news, I highly recommend
it is a daily newsletter
Another daily newsletter that is quite useful is provided by
One of the articles I found as a result of the Herndon
news is the following
3) Greater Silver Spring
Democratic Club Annual Picnic
