The care we need, when we need it.

Dear John,

I didn’t grow up receiving regular medical care. While working as a nanny, I got a concussion at my employer’s home. I worried, How much will this cost? As I missed work to recover, I wondered, How much money will be cut from my paycheck?  

Being a nanny politicized me in many ways, and my concussion re-grounded me in a key fact: no one should have to worry about getting the care they need when they need it. Everyone deserves access to free, accessible, and quality healthcare.  

That’s why I’m grateful to work at TakeAction Minnesota, an organization that has been fighting for healthcare accessibility and affordability since the very beginning.  

If you’re hungry to learn more about TakeAction Minnesota and our active campaigns, join us for our member meeting TONIGHT at 6PM. You’ll be in community and get a chance to hear about how we’re taking action to ensure a world that is caring and just.  

Across race, income, gender, and geography, 91 percent of us agree that the state needs to step up and help more Minnesotans access affordable, quality healthcare. Every day – but especially now, in a global pandemic – no one should have to choose between getting the care they need and paying the rent or buying groceries. 

Hope to see you at tonight’s meeting! 

Take care, 
LyLy
