| Conrad Holds Meeting on Health Care |
| 8/19/2009 |
| Sen. Kent Conrad got a friendly response from the crowd during a town hall meeting in Milnor today on health care reform. He also gave everyone an opportunity to speak, offering the chance one by one to each of the approximately 50 people in the crowd. None of them were there to protest. It was Conrad`s 21st meeting to discuss the health care options being debated in Congress. The North Dakota Democrat has been a leading advocate for consumer-owned nonprofit cooperatives that would sell insurance in competition with private industry, not unlike the way electric and agriculture co-ops operate. Conrad says a cooperative health system could attract as many as 12 million members and would provide "meaningful competition" to insurance companies. |
