SENSIBLE REFORM

``The Health Care Mess'' cover story (Currents, Feb. 24), helps your readers understand the most sensible reform proposal on health care. ``The American Citizens Health Care Act 1995'' is offered by the Coalition of the Public and Physicians for Sensible Health Care Reform USA. CoPPS USA is a non-profit, non-partisan and non-denominational public voice directed by voluntary board and committees.

CoPPs, USA, is going to launch its national campaign with a nationwide series of town-hall meetings. The first meeting will be in Hampton Roads in May. The purpose of these meetings is to provide and receive input from the public. CoPPs, USA, urges every concerned American to join its membership. With its membership behind the final version of ``The Americans Citizens Health Care Act 1995,'' the coalition will mandate Congress to properly reform the health care system.
