Signing in the street

by Vanity Smith—Michigan

While our job is to sign people up by knocking on doors, I had a random encounter while between doors.

Jared and I were walking up the street when three guys in a car stopped us. The driver asked what we were out there doing, and I told him we were fighting for affordable health care. He said, “affordable health care?” and pulled over to the side of the road to offer his support. As he was signing up, I asked for the voluntary dues contribution of $5, and he said he would have to go to the bank but that he would bring it back. We left, and 20 minutes later he found Jared and gave him the dues.

This guy’s commitment made me feel that there is nothing more important than the fight for affordable health care.
