Law Student Uses Facebook Group to Promote Health Care Reform

Jeff Traylor, a Lewis & Clark Law School student, has turned to Facebook to advocate for universal health care. In the year between his graduation from college and his first year in law school, Jeff Traylor worked in a restaurant and was similar to approximately 44 million Americans in this respect: He had no health insurance. Having confronted the choice facing many Americans between paying bills or buying medicine, Traylor created 1,000,000 Strong for Universal Health Care in America that he hopes will help people “get organized, get active, and begin the campaign for reform and a real solution.” [Politico story] Check out Taylor's Facebook group.
