A large number of HCFA and Community Catalyst staff and supporters were at the Labor Day Rally for Health Reform today on Boston Common. Over 4000 were at the spirited rally, and the march to Copley Square, under the beautiful skies, showed the strength of our movement to the city.

Attorney General Martha Coakley and Congressmen Capuano, Lynch, Markey and Tierney all spoke passionately. Virtually every speaker invoked Senator Kennedy, and Boston Mayor Menino led a tribute and moment of silence in his memory. Thanks to our partners SEIU, HCAN, AFL-CIO and Organizing For America for their work in making the rally happen
