We Believe that Health Care is a Human Right! Getting involved is as easy as learning some talking points to share the benefits of Medicare For All to helping to elect representatives that support our vision. We welcome positive energy and ideas on how we can make a difference in the ongoing effort to bring awareness and change to our state and country's decrepit medical structure.
