About question #4 appearing on ballots in legislative districts currently represented by Kulik, Mark, Vega, Solomon-Rose, Scibak, and Kocot (formerly):  “Shall the Representative from this District be instructed to vote for legislation to create a single-payer system of universal health care that would provide all Massachusetts residents with comprehensive health care coverage including the freedom to choose doctors and other health care professionals, facilities, and services, and that would eliminate the role of insurance companies in health care by creating a publicly administered insurance trust fund?”

This event is free and open to the public.
