Grass Roots Input on Health
Sign up to lead a health care discussion over the holidays
Health care is a top priority for President-elect Obama and for Senator Tom Daschle, who has just been named Secretary-designate for Health and Human Services (HHS). They both are committed to health care reform that comes from the ground up -- that's why this holiday season, we're asking you to give us the gift of your ideas and input.
Sign up to lead a Health Care Community Discussion in your home, community center, or even a local coffee shop, anytime from December 15th to 31st.
We'll provide you with a special moderator kit that will give you everything you need to get the discussion going. And Senator Tom Daschle, the leader of the Transition's Health Policy Team, will even choose some discussions to attend in person.
Below, you can view President-elect Obama's announcement of Senator Daschle to lead HHS and the new White House Office of Health Reform.
