<[link removed]>Friend,
Long before I launched my first campaign for office, I served for over two decades as a doctor of Internal Medicine.
In fact, it was my practice as a physician that steered me into full time activism.
As a doctor, I came to understand that the problems most of my patients faced did not stem from lifestyle “choices” or even their family medical history. It was the toxic combination of corporate greed and political corruption, poisoning our planet and our people while forcing all of us into the unsustainable grind of capitalism.
I haven’t been a practicing physician for a number of years – but I can still diagnose our collective affliction.
Let’s review some basic facts:
- 26 million Americans have NO health insurance at all.
- Up to 43% of American adults are UNDER-insured – meaning that your health insurance doesn’t cover your basic medical expenses.
- 41% (or 73 MILLION) Americans are in debt for medical bills.
- At least 68,000 Americans die every year because they can’t access affordable healthcare.
We spend more on healthcare than any other country on earth for the privilege of living sicker and dying younger than ANY of our peer nations.
But it doesn’t have to be this way.
Universal healthcare is fully within our grasp, and it is the only solution to the tangled mess of the privatized American healthcare system that leaves millions falling through the cracks.
Imagine a world where you don’t have to pay a copay to see a doctor or collect a prescription.
Imagine a world where you don’t have to spend hours on the phone to find out if your preferred doctor is in network – or to get your visit covered if they’re not.
Imagine a world where, when you are sick, you simply go to the doctor – and they treat you.
No deductibles. No co-pays. No mandatory minimums and no lifetime maximums. Just healthcare.
That is not a wild fantasy. That is the reality in dozens of countries around the world – and it could be our reality, too. Our campaign is fighting to guarantee no American struggles, suffers, or dies because they can’t get basic healthcare. <[link removed]>
<[link removed]>DONATE <[link removed]>When Democrats like Joe Biden tell you that healthcare is a human right, what they really mean is that healthcare has the right to be profitable for insurance carriers.
My vision for healthcare is radically different – shaped by decades of experience as a physician and a lifetime of activism.
When I am president, we will push Congress to immediately expand and implement a national Medicare for All program that covers every single American from birth.
We will move to cancel ALL medical debt and to codify patients’ rights (including the right to an abortion and all bodily autonomy).
We will restore public trust in government agencies with transparency and effective oversight, and shut the revolving door between regulatory bodies like the FDA and CDC and the multibillion dollar corporations they are supposed to govern.
All of this and a whole lot more <[link removed]> is attainable.
As your president, my highest responsibility will be the safety and well-being of our people and our planet – not the profits of multinational corporations or the robber barons in the executive suite.
Ours is the ONLY campaign slated to be on the ballot across the country this November with the credibility and experience to challenge empire and corporate greed to ensure we not only survive, but thrive.
I need your support to guarantee that every American has the choice to vote for people, planet, and peace.
<[link removed]>DONATE <[link removed]>Human health has always been inextricably connected with society. It’s a question of what and WHO we choose to invest in.
I choose us.
In solidarity and gratitude,
Jill
