Guaranteed Healthcare

CARSON CITY, Nevada -- If you've never traveled with RNs on a mission, you're missing one of the great shows of commitment to a better and more just nation that you'll ever see.  Launched this morning in Reno, nurses of the Nevada Nurses Organizing Committee boarded a bus for an 11-stop road show and set off to tell fellow Nevada citizens about what will happen with healthcare under each of the presidential candidate's healthcare plans.

At each stop, like the Comma Coffee shop above where nurses chatted with patrons, voters learned where RNs stand:  firmly in support of healthcare for every American -- everybody in and nobody out.  Malinda Markowitz, president of NNOC, spoke with customers at the coffee shop while a local musical trio -- complete with a washboard and homemade lyrics -- played in the background and lamented the state of rural healthcare clinics.  The lead singer told the group he knows the clinic is going through lay-offs and folks are worried about accessing care.
