From Community Catalyst:
Dear Partners:
At this historic time, we are sending a critical update to all of our partners interested in national health care reform. Last Thursday, the House Leadership released their health reform package, the Affordable Health Care for America Act (H.R. 3962). The bill ensures access to quality, stable, affordable health care; promotes competition; slows the growth in health care costs; and improves the quality of care. While this bill is not perfect, it is an historic step forward that we believe needs to be supported. For more information about the bill, see Community Catalyst’s summary of the bill: http://tinyurl.com/yg57s9z
This is the moment we have been working toward for months. Every Member of the House needs to hear from their constituents in the next 24 hours. Members need to know that people from their home state will support them when they cast a vote in favor of the bill.
ACTION STEP:
Contact your Representative today and forward this message to your networks asking them to make calls, too. The message is simple:
“Please vote in favor of H.R. 3962 when the bill comes to the floor this week. This is an historic opportunity to ensure health care for millions of Americans. As a constituent, I will support you when you cast this important vote.”
Sincerely,
Community Catalyst National Health Reform Tea
Community Catalyst is a national non-profit advocacy organization dedicated to making quality, affordable health care accessible to everyone.

Exclusive to E|AB ‘09, guest curators/artists Robin Kahn and Kirby Gookin of VendorBar will be coordinating a series of Occurrences (Happenings for the 21st Century) to take place throughout the run of Fair. Invited artists will design a limited edition multiple produced daily on site and vended from rolling carts dim sum style. Directly engaging the audience, artists will present actions, exchanges, and services resulting in the production and distribution of their work.
Expect projects, interventions, and headstands from Alison Knowles, Geoff Hendricks,
Larry Miller, Joe Ahearn, Cary Leibowitz, Tom Otterness, Mike Bidlo and many others.
A highlight of E|AB ‘09 will be a new edition from Yoko Ono, Add Color: Imagine Peace.
All visitors will be invited to participate by adding color, imagining peace. Copies of the edition will be available during the Fair.
During the Fair visitors will also be treated to three days of conversations on art with some of today’s most exciting artists, collectors, and publishers. The symposia series will be held in our Kartell-furnished lounge and is free and open to the public, courtesy of IPCNY.
