Updates and Additions

I am very pleased to communicate these examples among the continued improvements. -- Bob

Monitor Political Support -- U.S. Representatives
-- We added links to the list of U.S. Representatives to the details of each district for each of the representatives. See the report for the district of Representative Xavier Becerra here.

Monitor Popular Support -- ( the people's support! )

-- Single-Payer Oganizations
-- I added more organizations and well as links to organizations' web sites and whether a web site has national focus or state focus or both.

-- Union Endorsers (examples)
-- I reorganized and reformatted the lists of examples of the unions who have endorsed H.R. 676. The lists are more readable via a table format and include some links to more information. The reminder is still there about how to get automatic updates from Kay Tillow about the definitely expanding degree of support from union groups.

-- Chart of American's Support
-- We added results from December 2007 national poll questions. Now there is even more data confirming that one can conservatively and confidently state that over half of American want single-payer. One of the questions specifically asked about single-payer support, and the answer was over 50%.

Learn -- Explanation of Single-Payer
-- This new web page has four parts:
  • Overview
  • Impact
  • Impact of the Implementation
  • Overall Result
