RESOLUTION DESCRIPTION

Resolution in Support of Medicare for All and CalCare (2023)

This resolution reaffirms our chapter's commitment to winning single-payer guaranteed health care. The resolution endorses the CalCare campaign and would allow us to send representatives to monthly CalCare Organizing Table meetings convened by the California Nurses Association to explore collaboration on organizing activities. The newest single-payer CalCare legislation is expected to be introduced in the CA Assembly in early 2024, and Sacramento will be an important location for in-person actions to advance the bill. Similar to the last resolution passed in December of 2020, this resolution goes beyond most other single-payer resolutions by calling for the eventual public ownership of all health care delivery and facilities.
