A Health Care Town Hall with Gov. Howard Dean
Congressman Earl Blumenauer and former Vermonth Governor Dr. Howard Dean, M.D. discussed health care reform with Portland residents at a Town Hall meeting on June 5, 2009. The two explained the different health reform options on the table. They also talked about why they, as well as President Barack Obama, support a public health option. The public health option, Dean said, was vital to ensuring that every American had access to affordable health insurance.
