Rally Planned For Saturday Outside Rep. Meehan's Springfield Office
Pat Meehan's constituent are concerned about losing healthcare, and they are going to let him know Saturday.
A pro-healthcare rally is being held Saturday in Springfield Township. A group of people plan to convene on Rep. Pat Meehan's office Saturday in support of the Affordable Care Act and denounce the recently shot down American Health Care Act.
The rally will be held at 1 p.m., Saturday, April 8, at Meehan's office at 940 W. Sproul Road, Springfield.
"Constituents concerned about losing Healthcare coverage will gather outside Representative Meehan's office to express disapproval that their Congressman voted 'yes' on the American Health Care Act in committee, putting 40,000 constituents at risk of losing their insurance," a press release on the rally says. "Constituents are well aware that the effort to repeal and undermine the Affordable Care Act is not over."
