Democratic Women for Change
Today the Women Democratic Senators unveiled their 'Checklist for Change' agenda. Tonight all nine women democratic Senators will be featured on CNN's Larry King Live, which is aired at 9 ET.

Please call in with your questions and comments for the Senators or submit your question via the Internet at" http://www.cnn.com/CNN/Programs/larry.king.live/

A message from Senator Barbara A. Mikulski, Dean of the Women Senators-

As the nine Democratic women in the U.S. Senate, my colleagues and I believe that it is time for a change in Washington: change in agenda, change in tone, and change in direction. That's what our "checklist for change" is all about. This is what we women do - we need our checklists. And we challenge Majority Leader Bill Frist to make the issues on our checklist priorities for the American people this year. This is by no means a complete list of priorities, but these are challenges that Congress can meet right now.

It's time for a new direction. I invite you to join our effort for change and co-sign the letter. And I encourage you to explore this website and all of the extraordinary work of my colleagues.

Each of us can make a difference, but together we can make change.

To learn more about the Checklist for Change and co-sign the letter, visit http://democrats.senate.gov/checklistforchange/

4.  BACK TO THE DRAWING BOARD ON HEALTH CARE
Their health care agenda item is to make health care affordable for small businesses? :wtf:

How about making it affordable for all women? What happens when a woman gets sick and can't work? She becomes uninsured.

Sorry, but that item sucks big time. I expect better from Dem women. Sounds like you let the men at DLC make this one up for you.

BACK TO THE DRAWING BOARD ON HEALTH CARE, LADIES and think of women instead of your campaign donors.
