Eshoo hosts health care talk for Coastside

U.S. Rep. Anna Eshoo is hosting a “Telephone Town Hall” specifically for her Coastside constituents tonight to give them an opportunity to ask direct questions about national health care reform.


The Peninsula congresswoman has previously held similar teleconferences to discuss health care legislation, which have reportedly drawn more than 100,000 people to call in.


Staff members from Eshoo’s office say they are trying to limit participation for tonight’s meeting to only Coastsiders, so that the conversation can focus on specific concerns for the greater Half Moon Bay area. Eshoo is expected to first make opening comments before answering questions from the public.

Phone lines will open up for people to call in for the health care discussion at 6:50 p.m. People interested in participating are asked to call 1-877-229-8493, and then enter the identification number, 13393.


The meeting is expected to run for one hour.
