[1]NNU - Medicare for All!



Last month, Senator Bernie Sanders, Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal, and
Congresswoman Debbie Dingell reintroduced Medicare for All in the U.S.
House and Senate along with 113 House cosponsors and 14 Senate cosponsors!

Since then, we've been building a mass movement of people across the
country calling on Congress to guarantee health care as a human right.
Currently, we have over 70,000 signatures on our petition, but we've set a
goal to reach 100,000 signatures before the petition closes tomorrow
night.

you add your name to amplify our call for Congress to pass Medicare for
All?

This is what we're up against when it comes to reforming our broken health
care system:

Merck, the fourth-highest revenue-producing pharmaceutical company in
2022,^1 would rather sue the U.S. government than negotiate prices on a
small number of drugs that would help seniors and taxpayers save money.

Remember: U.S. residents pay more for prescription medicines than any
other country. And the Biden Administration's drug pricing reform program,
passed in the Inflation Reduction Act, has the potential to save $25
billion annually by 2031.^2

Even though Medicare is limited to negotiating the prices of only a
handful of drugs, Merck is not willing to negotiate despite already
receiving federal subsidies. In fact, its second-best-selling drug was
developed thanks to federal taxpayer funding.^3

Big pharma will continue to prioritize profits over people until we step
up. Medicare for All is the best — and only — solution to our broken
health care system. We deserve so much better than corporate greed.

agree, will you add your name to call on Congress to adopt Medicare for
All? We need your signature before this action closes.

Thank you for your support,
