From the Daily Local News, April 26, 2008 (Read entire article): PA ABC passed in the House and is currently under consideration in the state Senate. There are other ideas being discussed, including universal health care. I am open to all ideas and suggestions and look forward to some lively debate at my health care town hall meeting Thursday evening at the Borough of West Chester Municipal Building. Access to health care is a basic human need and right. Pennsylvania is poised to be a leader in addressing this national crisis. I call on everyone to get involved. Only by a cooperative effort of Democrats and Republicans, doctors and insurance companies, and businesses and individuals just like you can we solve this growing problem. —Rep. Barbara McIlvaine Smith |
