Congress is proposing an onslaught of cuts to domestic spending, including cuts to vital public health services. Initiatives by the Center for Policy Analysis aim to carry out the Call for Direction in 2011 by the EQUAL Health Network. The Call for Direction can be found at the EQUAL Health Network’s website http://www.centerforpolicyanalysis.org/.
The EQUAL Health Network’s listserv disseminates news and opinions consistent with these views, and provides a discussion blog for debate on how best to achieve them.
