• Work to repeal the Medicare Modernization Act and replace it with a single payer system.

• In order to move closer to bringing our troops home from Iraq (and not simply move them to other bases in the Middle East), garner support for the resolution before the state legislature to bring our national guard members home now.

• Start a movement calling for a human rights amendment to the California constitution based on the UN Declaration of Human Rights drafted by Eleanor Roosevelt.

• Support passage of Tom Ammiano’s ordinance requiring San Francisco businesses employing more than 20 people to provide health insurance.

• Make environmental issues an important part of our agenda by linking them to other issues, such as health.

• Give top priority to attracting new members.

We didn’t have time to fully consider many other important issues members raised. Clearly our agenda will continue to evolve.
