Nine persons, all with the Des Moines Catholic Workers were arrested at 2:00 this afternoon in the offices of the Wellmark Blue Cross/Blue Shield in Des Moines, Iowa. This writer just spoke with one of those arrested, Mona Shaw. She confirmed that one of those arrested was an 11-year-old girl. The nine were cited for criminal trespass and released.
The protesters were demonstrating on behalf of a single-payer system. Some one needs to begin taking a count of all those persons arrested for standing up for a sane and just economic system in this country, including health care for all.
The Des Moines Nine are to be congratulated for their efforts on behalf of us all.
