Across Tennessee, the calls for health care reform are growing louder. You don’t need to be an expert to help out. Visit BarackObama.com to find the service event closest to you.

Here’s a sample of the dozens of events planned for this Saturday:

• MEMPHIS: Crusade to End Infant Mortality. “Memphis has the highest infant mortality rate among the nation’s 60 largest cities. Our local rate is twice the rate of the national average. Because we believe every baby deserves an opportunity to make it to their first birthday and beyond, we are going to do something about this alarming issue.”
• SEWANEE: Sick Around America. “Join us to view the Frontline documentary “Sick Around America”. Following the film, there will be opportunity for dialogue and feedback from the group about health care reform. You will also have an opportunity to share your own personal health care story and information will be available about health care services in our area. Health care reform matters – please join us!”
• COOKEVILLE: Give Blood for Health Care. “Blood Assurance is in critical need of type O positive and O negative blood donors. Anyone able to volunteer to donate blood is urged to do so as soon as possible.”
