On March 16th, Les Fossel, small businessman and former GOP state legislator, gave the fifth in a series of six talks for state legislators. Sponsored by HealthCare for All Maine, the series is focused on “Improving Health Care in Maine: What Can We Do?”
Les proposed twelve possible steps to move Maine along the path to healthcare for everyone in Maine. Please download a brief summary of Les’ talk HERE. Additional information, including the rationale for all twelve steps can be viewed and downloaded HERE.
One of the twelve steps is already in the works. Senator Craig Hickman has introduced LD590, a resolution to amend the Maine Constitution to establish the right to health care. The Maine AllCare board has voted to support the resolution. Hearings will be held in the near future.
The next Lunch and Learn is scheduled for Thursday, March 23, from 12-1 pm in the Legislative Conference Room 121 of the Maine State House. Dr. Caryl Heaton will speak about health care inequities.
