« Cancer Victim Rips Hypocrites in Congress over Single Payer Issue | Rumsfeld WAR CRIMINAL ARREST THIS MAN! RESPONSIBLE FOR DEATH OF THOUSANDS! » |

At a press conference in the House Rayburn Office Building, on May 13, 2009, Dr. Margaret Flowers shared her feelings about her role as a member of “The Baucus Eight,” and its importance to the cause of Single Payer. She said: “It is time to stop this abusive health care situation” in the country! Along with seven other activists, Dr. Flowers was arrested for challenging, on May 5, 2009, the current rigged system in the Senate Dirksen Office Building. On that date, Single Payer advocates were barred from having their voices heard by the undemocratic Chair of the Senate Finance Committee, one Max Baucus (D-MT). Only the “Fat Cats” from the HMOs, Insurance and Pharmaceutical Industries were welcomed at Sen. Baucus’ table.
