More than 300 people attend into the Westminster Presbyterian Church in Albany on Sunday to hear Cong. John Conyers and Paul Tonko speak about the need for Single Payer Health Care.
The lead sponsor of the event was the Presbyterian Church USA and the event featured a panel of faith representatives speaking to the moral right for health care for all.
After the event, the speaker receiving the most praise was Dr. Andy Coates of PNHP, who explained Single Payer and its importance at the moment.
Participants wrote several hundred letters to their elected officials after the event.

Single Payer activists, don't give up. As President Obama said in his press conference this week, "Persistence" !
