Central ME CATV to Air KVO Candidates Forum on Health Care

Missed the KVO Candidates Forum on Health Care? No problem! Thanks to Central Maine Community Access TV, you can watch it any night this week. CATV plans to air the event at 7:00pm running at least through Wednesday, on Channel 7 in most of Greater Waterville/Somerset Co, and Channel 11 in Fairfield. I believe it will air at 9pm starting Thursday, but I'll try to send program updates as I get them. The KVO steno pool is working hard to transcribe the responses we got from the 12 State House and Senate candidates, and 2 U.S. Congress candidates' representatives, who were with us last Sunday. The quick summary, though, is that we heard YES from everyone - YES that health care is a basic human right, YES that they will meet with us to work on the long-term care crisis, and YES that there needs to be more accountability and transparency in the private insurance sector. It was an exciting meeting, and Dan hopes to have a more detailed update out to you soon (including a list of participating candidates, and links to the text of their responses.) In the meantime, though, we hope you will try to catch it on TV!
