The Lawrence-area council of Move On, a national political advocacy organization, is hosting a candlelight vigil Wednesday night in support of health care reform and in remembrance of the work of the late U.S. Sen. Ted Kennedy, D-Mass.

The vigil begins at 8 p.m. at the gazebo at South Park, 1141 Mass.

At the event, area residents will speak about problems and concerns they have had with the country’s current health care system.

Organizer Jo Andersen said the purpose of the event is aimed at raising support for reforms to the current health care system, which she described as “completely broken.”
