Healthcare activist registers DoItForTed.com domain name
08/27/09 04:23 PM ET
A healthcare activist on Wednesday registered the domain name doitforted.com, saying he claimed the rights to the website to help pass healthcare reform in honor the late Sen. Edward Kennedy (D-Mass.).
Alex Lawson, who founded DC Fights Back -- a grassroots advocacy group that focuses on the HIV epidemic in Washington, DC -- stated in an e-mail, "I mainly wanted to ensure that the sites were available to be used by people who want to honor Sen. Kennedy's legacy by passing comprehensive health reform."
Some Democrats on Capitol, including Sen. Robert Byrd (W.Va.), have said the healthcare reform bill should be passed in Kennedy's name.
Lawson said he has no immediate plans to put content on doitforted.com.
