Last week, Baltimore, Maryland became the latest city in the United States to pass a resolution in support of Medicare for All!
Our allies at Public Citizen led this effort through their Medicare for All Resolutions campaign. Thanks to their organizing, they’ve helped more than 100 cities and towns across the country take this step toward building the political will and pressure needed to achieve guaranteed health care for all.
Despite this win being years in the making, this was a simple process: a resolution was set for a hearing at the onset of the pandemic in 2020, and a city council shakeup shortly after that put it on the backburner. But when activists reached out to a council member, she agreed to revive the resolution along with the original council sponsor, and it passed!
While we celebrate this victory, let’s help keep up the momentum. Progressive council members are often looking for resolutions to pass, so it’s a great time to encourage them to introduce and support a resolution in favor of Medicare for All.
Check out www.medicare4allresolutions.org to see if your town or city has passed a resolution endorsing Medicare for All yet, and get involved!
It’s up to us to continue building our movement for Medicare for All from the ground up across local communities big and small.
In solidarity,
Nurses’ Campaign to Win Medicare for All
