[1]NNU - Medicare for All!
We have HUGE news.
Medicare for All legislation will be introduced in the U.S. House and
Senate on Tuesday, May 16!
We’ll have more to share with you soon about how you can take action ahead
of the bill introductions to help secure your members of Congress as
original cosponsors. But today, we want to talk to you about how you can
help amplify this huge moment in the days afterward.
Immediately following the re-introduction, we need to hit the ground
running to spread the word and bring as much visibility and attention to
these bills as possible.
That’s why we’re organizing a National Medicare for All Weekend of Action
on May 20 & 21. We’ll be canvassing in communities across the country to
talk to our neighbors about the legislation that was just introduced and
how they can take action to support it. Can you be one of the people we
need to step up and host an event?

as possible around these Medicare for All bills, will you sign up to host
a canvass event in your community?

After you sign up, we’ll send you all the details and information you need
to know about how to host an action, including options to join a group
training call this week.
Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal and Congresswoman Debbie Dingell, authors of
the House legislation, and Senator Bernie Sanders, author of the Senate
legislation, will jointly introduce their bills to Congress on Tuesday,
May 16.
The United States is functionally the only industrialized country in the
world where getting sick can make you go bankrupt. We deserve so much
better than our broken, expensive health care system. Medicare for All is
the way forward.
Not only will Medicare for All guarantee health care to everyone, it'll
also be hundreds of billions of dollars cheaper than the broken,
for-profit system we have now. It is cost-effective and humane, and it's
time that we make it a reality.

we can ask our leaders to choose a side. Will you sign up to host an
action?
In solidarity,
