There are still many, especially young adults, who are uninsured. This year you can help "give the gift of health" by reaching out to friends and family members ages 18 to 29 and encouraging them to purchase health insurance through Covered California or Medi-Cal. >> >> Young adults often feel invincible and may need an extra push to get covered. Your voice can be the influence they need. Don't hesitate to engage in this life-changing conversation with your younger loved ones this holiday season. >> >> Please visit www.CoveredCa.com/pledge to access tools to get the conversation started and help enroll a loved one in affordable, high quality health care today.

Look for the TV or cable or radio or internet channel which you have , keeping in mind we're 3 hours earlier on the West Coast. b)The movie "Saving Mr. Banks" is a serious movie about redemption within the family of Walt Disney and the family of the Australian female creator of Mary Poppins. It's playing in downtown Davis right now. It is probably too dark for children, because of its dealing with the issue of alcoholism and an attempted suicide of a parent, but a wise and tender movie. c)Bill Cosby is coming to the Sacramento Convention Center on the evening of February 22. d)Tonight is the deadline for writing a check to your political candidates,which will show strength from the grassroots for this last quarter . Nancy Pelosi says that the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee is within a thousand of breaking I million individual contributions, which will be a record support for a quarter from individuals. Your contribution will be matched dollar-for-dollar. Phone 1-877-DEM-FUTURE or go to www.dccc.org/momentum or mail your dated check to DCCC, 430 So. Capitol St.,SE, Washington DC 20003. The Democratic Senate Campaign Committee will have your contribution trip-matched if made by tonight, http://www.dscc.org and it is essential that we Democrats keep our majority firewall in the US Senate. A Happy and Healthy New Year, cheers, John C
