Thanks for posting this. We are holding one based in Bellevue, WA, US
(Karen's home state ) Due to snow conditions we have shifted it to
be a virtual meeting to gather and compile what people want and send
it to Obama's team.

Yes this is a first and result of a lot of work being done.

If you would like to participate in ours, reply to me and I'll send
our moderator's document to you. Or post them as mentioned below on
the site. It's wonderful to have several options....no excuses
In-person meetings are of course wonderful and encouraged!

i missed the one held last sunday in my town, but they did set up a health committee
and i wrote to include me on the list. i have also written on change.gov.
while karen's post spoke in such a positive manner, i think people need to take
obama'a words seriously--that the public needs to keep his toes to the fire since
outside of the new secy' of labor, no one else appointed seems to reflect the voice
of the public that busted its collective butt to get him elected. he just sold out the gay
communitte with his ch oice of the rabidly homophobic and anit-woman evangelist
for the invocation at the inaugural. and i don't know where tom daschle will be as
secy of health on issues of the codex attacks on the dshea regs, organics and
enforced drugs on infants, children and adults. joe lieberman remains as chair of
the homeland security senate committee and he supports the corporate interests
of monsanto, the fda, etc.
all i can feel is that we need to breathe deeply and keep on calling and letter writing.

Thanks, Leilanae!
With your inspiration, I found one to sign up for. (And am even giving
a shot to hosting one too )

Hi Shannon,

Way to go!!!!

If we don't speak up and TAKE ACTION I don't think we have a right to
complain about the end result.
