Join Sen. Dodd, Rep. Larson, and Health Care Experts in East Hartford

On Friday January 23, Senator Chris Dodd is coming to East Hartford because he wants to hear first hand from the people of Connecticut about their views and ideas for reforming our nation's health care system.

Will you join us at Goodwin College to tell Senator Dodd what a solution to the health care crisis should look like?

Representative John Larson will also be joining the discussion and hearing your voices on Friday. Both he and Senator Dodd will carry your words and ideas back with them to Congress. This is your chance to influence two of our nation's leaders as they work on health care reform.

Friday's event will focus on health care coverage and access, and it is the first in a series of town hall meetings that Senator Dodd will host across the state. Below are the names of people who will be joining Senator Dodd at Goodwin College this Friday:
