A House Divided Against Itself Cannot Stand

The current proposals for health care reform that the Congress is considering are fatally flawed due to the massive harmful influence of the for-profit sickness industry conglomerates, including the insurance corporations.

Russ Feingold’s January 2010 Listening Session

On Monday, January 4, from noon until mid-afternoon, Democratic Senator Feingold held a “Listening Session” in Ozaukee County, at the MATC-North Auditorium. It was packed, with virtually all seats filled.

But there was something obviously different about this session from the previous sessions I have attended.
