Today, Washington CAN! announces the world premier of a dramatic new trailer for the "Pirates of the Health Care-ibbean" March on Regence. It's been called "rivetting," "awe-inspiring," and "low-budget." You be the judge.
Can you do better? Probably. Dust off your director's chair. Get out the camera. And send us your trailer for the "Pirates of the Health Care-ibbean." You never know - it could launch your Hollywood career.
The list of groups endorsing "Pirates
of the Health Care-ibbean" keeps growing. Has your church, labor

Pirates of the Health
Care-ibbean
a March &
Rally
for Health Care
Justice
Sat. Aug 4
9 AM
Regence Blue Shield is the
wealthiest private insurance company in Washington. They have amassed over $890 million in excess
surplus, an increase of 78 percent since 2003.
But apparently it’s not enough to satisfy a greedy appetite for our
premium dollars. In July, Regence is
shocking policy holders with a massive rate increase of 19 percent – up to 40
percent for the elderly.
Insurance pirates are hoarding a
treasure chest of profit, while making the poor, sick & vulnerable walk the
plank. It’s time to end insurance
piracy. Health care for all now!
March begins at:
Seattle University
(enter
at 10th & Madison)
March to:
Regence HeadQuarters
(9th
& Howell)
