[2]National Nurses United




The holidays are here, and while they certainly look a lot different this
year, one thing is for sure.

Whether on Zoom or with your immediate household, the dinner table is
bound to get political – and Covid-19 is almost certain to be a topic of
conversation. But I have good news: we built a tool to practice and learn
how to talk to friends and relatives about Medicare for All through the
lens of Covid-19.

scenarios — and hone your persuasion skills! You’ll be an expert in
diplomatic dinner-table or Zoom discussions in no time.

The challenges of this year have made the case for Medicare for All
stronger than ever before. We must take this opportunity to have
conversations with our friends and family about how we can fight together
for a health care system that truly guarantees health care to all.

During the early months of the pandemic, an estimated 27 million people
lost their employer-sponsored health insurance and joined the 29 million
who were already uninsured. At the same time, Covid-19's disproportionate
impact on people of color has reignited conversations about racial
disparities in our current profit-driven health care system.

We know that sharing stories and having one-on-one conversations can win
people over. One tool we use to do this is called the Response Cycle, and
we use it all the time in our campaign.

Now YOU can use the Response Cycle this holiday season and finally
convince those aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends on your Zoom call that
Medicare for All is the best and only fix for our broken health care
system.

[ [link removed] ]Go through a practice discussion about Medicare for All today! The
program will teach you how to react to a variety of situations and prepare
you for whatever the conversation throws your way.

Together we can have the discussions necessary to mobilize the vast public
support for Medicare for All into a movement too big and powerful for our
leaders to ignore.

Wishing you luck and happy holidays from all of us to you and yours.

-Jasmine Ruddy and the whole M4A team
