Former Governor Strickland to Help Lead Bipartisan Healthcare Group
Washington, D.C. - The Bipartisan Policy Center (BPC) will launch its Health Project, led by former Senate Majority Leaders Tom Daschle and Bill Frist, and former Governor Ted Strickland, on Tuesday, January 18, 2011 in Washington, D.C.
In June 2009, former U.S. Senate Majority Leaders Howard Baker, Tom Daschle, and Bob Dole produced a bipartisan blueprint for health care reform, Crossing Our Lines. Recognizing the continued need for bipartisan solutions to our health system challenges, the BPC is renewing its health care project with a focus on state-based initiatives. The new project will work with the states, through a series of public and private discussions, to ensure that Americans have access to high-quality, affordable health care.
Senators Daschle and Frist, along with Governor Strickland, will give remarks at the event and take questions from the audience. Project co-directors Chris Jennings and Sheila Burke, and BPC project director Julie Barnes will also be in attendance.
