The Social Justice Committee is continuing to focus on health care reform with a focus on “Medicare for All in New Hampshire”. A spring forum is being planned, where a review of current proposed legislation on the state on health care reform will be the major focus. In addition, SJ will be responsible for some spring Sunday services.
Participant democracy is our objective! If you want more information about SJ Committee’s work and/or would like to be added to its Advocacy and Witness e-mail list please contact Pat Yosha, Coordinator of the FUUSE Social Justice Committee: 772-3782 or pyosha@comcast.net .
