Sen. Michael Bennet is headed to a Presbyterian church in Denver to talk about health care reform with a pastor pushing for change.
Bennet meets Thursday with the Rev. Bill Calhoun and his parishioners at Montview Boulevard Presbyterian Church. The meeting comes as Calhoun stars in radio ads on Christian stations this week calling for improvements to health care.
Liberal-leaning religious groups have launched radio ads in four other states this week in which local pastors urge senators to back efforts to overhaul the nation's health care system.
Thursday's meeting will include testimony from patients who want changes. Then, Bennet plans to lay out his vision for improving health care.
