Breaking News: Wendell Potter in Nashville

You have probably seen Wendell Potter, former Cigna Insurance Executive on any number of news programs, or perhaps on one of the Sunday morning talk shows in the past few months. Wendell is one of the leading figures from the Health Insurance industry who has left the fold and been willing to come out and openly discuss how the Health Insurance industry really operates.

Saturday, December 12, 10:30 am
Town Hall Meeting with Wendell Potter, former Cigna Insurance Executive

Matthew Walker Comprehensive Health Center, 1035 14th Avenue North, 2^nd Floor
Directions

As health care reform nears a vote in the Senate, Wendell Potter, former head of corporate communications at CIGNA, one of the nation’s largest health insurance companies will address concerned Tennesseans at a town hall event on health care reform to share his insider-information of the insurance industry. After 20 years of working in health care management, Potter made the decision to go on record about how health insurance companies treat their customers.

Potter will discuss his transformation from industry mouthpiece to whistleblower, the healthcare industry’s extensive PR and lobbying machine, as well as what health care reform will mean for Tennessee’s families.

Dear Williamson County Democrats,

As many of you know, we typically have a Ham & Turkey holiday dinner together every December. In lieu of our regular holiday dinner this year - we delivered eleven family Thanksgiving dinners to those less fortunate in the Franklin area last week.  

As we are in the middle of renovations - regretfully, the headquarters will not be ready in time for December Potluck. We do hope to have the renovation complete in time for January Potluck when we will host a New Year Grand Opening of the new and improved Williamson County Democratic Party headquarters in downtown Franklin. The work is coming along very nicely, though a little slower that we expected. Our renovation fundraising goal was not met so we have had to adjust to doing a lot of the work amongst ourselves. Naturally that slowed us down a few weeks.  I will keep you posted on progress.

Todd

Please attend one of the local candidate events this weekend if you can:

Dear Williamson County Democrats,
Our Headquarters at 112-B East Fowlkes Street will be closed for the remainder of the month while we undergo some renovations. If all goes according to schedule we should re-open for Dec 3^rd Potluck dinner. We thank those who made a contribution to our renovation fund and we continue to encourage all to consider making a donation of any size as we are in need of your financial support.

The WCDP is one of five county parties in the state that maintains a year round headquarters. We are the most active party in the state year round, and we sit in one of the largest voting districts in the state.  2010 approaches and we will matter in the outcome – but not without your support.

We receive no funding from any other source. We are 100% volunteer staffed and 100% self supporting. Please help us stay active and engaged in this community. Please consider making a donation to the WCDP today. Your contribution of any amount will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.
