Affordable Care Act/"ObamaCare" with a panel of experts:

Gerald Kominski, Professor of Health Policy and Management at UCLA, and Director of the UCLA Center for Health Policy Research.

Marcia Davalos, Southern California Outreach Manager
for Small Business Majority

Connie Kizzie-Gillett, Certified ACA Counselor for Individuals and Families (focus on chronic diseases and Alzheimer's)

and a Representative from "Young Invincibles," the policy organization of, and for, young Americans

Q & A with Panel Members after their presentations.

=

Get your questions answered. Find out where you can find out more. Come hear our panelists give an overview of where the ACA is now, what its impacts are, and who qualifies for coverage, including small businesses, seniors and young people.

In 2010, California was the first state in the nation to enact legislation to implement the provisions of the federal Affordable Care Act (aka "ObamaCare") by creating a health care marketplace - Covered California.

While the national enrollment site, HealthCare.Gov, got off to a rocky start, our state's program hit the ground running, and it encourages everyone that is qualified to sign up to do so.

The Affordable Care Act enrollment in health plans through Covered California began on October 1, 2013 and will continue until March 31, 2014.

FROM PDSMM, the Progressive Democrats of the Santa Monica Mountains:

Fracking is here in Los Angeles. Residents in the Baldwin Hills area know - they can smell it. In the two years since Gasland came out fracking has increased! And there is NO REGULATION! In New York"s beautiful Catskill Mountains Sean and Yoko Lennon are fighting to preserve the land. Now near Santa Barbara and Route 101 fracking is going to begin. No one is safe who lives near government land as it is being leased for fracking! This is OUR LAND! OUR AIR! OUR WATER! Come to the Topanga Community House, the site of so many wonderful forums. Learn the truth and what you can do! After the film there will be a forum. Legislation is pending but is it not strong enough. We need to ban this dangerous practice. Our water table is threatened. Methane gas is released exacerbating global warming. Panel members to be announced. Here the the Guardian review of the film and the trailer. Even if you have seen it - come and see it again with your friends and contribute to solutions. Please post, forward, get the word out! Thank you! See you on the 23rd.

Here is the address: Topanga Community House
1440 Topanga Canyon Boulevard
Topanga, CA 90290
Bring a dessert to share! Coffee, tea and water will be provided. $5 donation requested. No one turned away for lack of funds!

FOLLOW THE MONEY... What we in California can do to lead the way for change... and we're not talking Loose Change here...
Thursday, June 14, 7:00 P.M.
St. Bede's Episcopal Church (Sanctuary)
3590 Grand View Blvd., Mar Vista 90066

It's scary out there. Spending for the Wisconsin recall election by candidates and independent groups is estimated to be between 75 and 80 MILLION DOLLARS. Republican Super PACs are pouring money into races all over the country and winning; progressives are losing; and Romney will spend 1 BILLION DOLLARS to defeat Obama. And, of course, Obama will have to raise the same if he is to win.

I thought we were recovering from a recession. If there is so much disposable money out there why isn't it being spent to help the economy? To build more roads, to put people to work? Why don't we have Single Payer Health Care? Why are people losing their homes? And what can we do to about it?

We can identify the moneybags, the biggest funders of the propositions on the ballots. And begin to move to amend the Constitution to overturn Citizens United, the Supreme Court's "Corporations as People" decision.

THE DISCLOSE ACT & MOVE TO AMEND

JOIN US ON THURSDAY, JUNE 14, 2012 ~ 7:00 PM
AND HEAR FROM OUR PANEL OF GRASSROOTS EXPERTS

TRENT LANGE - California Clean Money Campaign and the CA Disclose Act
MARY BETH FIELDER - Move To Amend and United Republic
DANIEL TAMM - Move to Amend

Trent Lange Mary Beth Fielder Daniel Tamm

Our Senior Advocate Committee Chair, Frances Pin, writes:

"There are so many things happening now in our country that are serious, in fact detrimental, that it becomes more infuriating to also listen to the blatant lies the Republican presidential candidate is putting out. This is being done with the help of the media and the money it takes to pay for it all. What has unleashed this tempest is the Supreme Court in issuing a decision under the name forever to be remembered as "Citizens United", which gives untold power to corporations to spend infinite amounts of money towards political candidates without legally having to divulge where the money is coming from.

What's going on now? What can we do about it? It's time for us to find out more from the grassroots organizations working on overturning the decision of the Supreme Court. How can we disclose donors to political campaigns so that we could find other ways to combat them? Is the Federal Elections Commission working for the people or for the corporations?"

PLEASE JOIN US AS WE "FOLLOW THE MONEY" IN THE POLITICAL PROCESS
When: Thursday, June 14, 2012 7:00 p.m. (door open 6:45 p.m.)

Where: St. Bede's Church @ 3590 Grand View Blvd., Mar Vista 90066 (corner of Grand View & Charnock, north of Venice Blvd.)
Free lot and street parking

Program Panel: Trent Lange (Clean Money Campaign), Mary Beth Fielder (United Republic & Move to Amend), Daniel Tamm (Move to Amend)
