300 attend health care forum

AMBRIDGE, PA. — More than 300 western Pennsylvanians turned out Saturday for U.S. Rep. Jason Altmire’s town hall on health care reform.

“My number one priority is ensuring that we take the steps needed to lower health care costs for families and small businesses,” Altmire, D-4th, said. “I will also fight to make sure that any bill we pass in Congress preserves what works in our current system and does not add one penny to the federal deficit.”
