This Thursday, June 19, 2008, Americans across the nation will demonstrate in favor of guaranteed healthcare and in protest of AHIP — America’s Health Insurance Plans — the insurance industry lobbyists who profit from pain. The annual convention of AHIP will be met by thousands of protestors in San Francisco — ?12 Noon, Moscone Center West, 4th @ Howard— and simultaneously in more than thirteen cities across the nation.

Learn more about this national demonstration on the AFL-CIO website and see if there is a demonstration scheduled in your city.
