Weekly Address 7-24-09

President Obama has stated in this weeks address that we are closer than ever in passing the Health Reform Bill that is before the Senate.  It has  been a long time coming says the President.  The government agencies and legislative branch has been working hard to bring forth a new light in health care.

After coming from a short trip to Ohio to visit the Cleveland Clinic Foundation and speak at a town hall meeting in Shaker Heights, OH one can definitely notice that he is persistent in getting Americans involved in the process. Urging us to contact and stay on our governmental representatives about this bill.

He wants us to send him our questions and he and his staff  will answer as many as they can this week.   It has taken months he urges to move carefully, and methodically.

One thing we have know and have grown to know more about him is of his concern for humanity. He feels the  damaged being done right now health to families he is  concerned about hard working adults to get the care they need when they need and the small biz owner, about children and grandchildren saddled with deficits.

He knows and tells us it is not a political game and can’t keep waiting we owe it to them/you/me/us to finally get it done and get it done this year.

I tried to go to this event on Thursday but to no avail tickets weren’t forwarded. I know that he will be back he has at least 3 more years.  It seemed that he was well received and that he was able to push forward with the urgency of the bill. He is ready to go all that is left is the passing of the bill.

Yes there will be things in it that cost and we don’t all like. I say get it going we can amend and tweak along the way. Sitting still serves no purpose but cause more harm.

Take a listen to the Town Hall this past Thursday at Shaker Heights High School

“Evolve”

The President is coming to town!

Yes you heard it! The President on this Thursday July 23, 2009 will be coming to OH. How excited I am to be hearing of this.  As of this post the sign up for getting the free tickets to attend the town hall is closed. So I am waiting to hear if I received free tickets (2) to attend this town hall in my neck of the woods. I would love to be a part of this.

I remember when President Clinton came to my neck of the woods. My mom and I stood in line for 3-4 hrs.  It was a blast! Talk about my little piece of history. So I’ll keep ya posted if I get a call!

I would love the opportunity to ask a question about a few items on his Health Reform Bill as so many Americans would.  We will just have to see what happens. Stay tuned!

Here is the announcement:
