The Actors Fund has created an information and advocacy website where artists and entertainment
professionals around the country can immediately engage in the on-going debate.

The new site gives you the tools to contact your legislators directly,
as well as linking you to local and national advocacy organizations whose goals for health care reform reflect your own.

Like other movements, the Health Care Reform movement is using social media to get the message out. Here are just two examples that are relatively clear explanations of what is an otherwise large and complex issue and public policy debate.
