[2]National Nurses United


If you
missed the national call on Wednesday night, we have a pretty exciting
update for you: [ [link removed] ]We are proud to officially launch the Patients Over
Profits campaign.

For decades, insurance and pharma behemoths have bled working families dry
in the endless pursuit of money. And they maintain that system by lining
Congress’ pockets with hundreds of millions of dollars every election
cycle.

But in the last two years — something even more sinister has happened. As
the movement for Medicare for All has grown, these special interests came
together to form a corporate front-group called the Partnership for
America’s Health Care Future. This group has the sole intent of spending
millions on disinformation campaigns, ads, and lobbying to stop any major
health care reform, particularly Medicare for All.

It’s time for us to directly confront their political influence. We know
that campaign contributions are one of the key ways that they keep members
of Congress in their pockets. That’s why we’ve launched the Patients Over
Profits Pledge — to call on our elected officials to reject donations from
all health care corporations affiliated with the Partnership.

Every day nurses see the devastation and harm caused to patients by
profit-driven insurance and pharma corporations. And, until we win
Medicare for All, that devastation is going to continue.

So we’re urging our elected officials and those seeking office to cut ties
with these corporations that bankroll the efforts to prevent any health
care reform. And in order to really make this effective, we’ll need as
much grassroots power as we can get.

[ [link removed] ]Our politicians and candidates should reject contributions from health
care executives, not embrace their big-money influence and political
bribery. If you agree, visit our website to get more involved in this
critical work.

We can’t wait to work alongside all of you in this next phase. It’s been
less than 48 hours, and we already have politicians reaching out to sign
the pledge. Your support will make this work even more successful. 

And if you’re a politician or aspiring candidate — or know one who may be
interested — [ [link removed] ]please make sure you visit and share!

In solidarity,

Jasmine Ruddy
Organizer
Nurses’ Campaign to Win Medicare for All
