265 million COVID vaccinations administered in the United States, John. With zero cost to anybody who received their shot.

For a health care system that has deep, systematic challenges – this number is pretty staggering. And it’s also hopeful. It demonstrates what happens when the power of the federal government is put to work – to its full capacity – for the American people. 

Even still, while record numbers of Americans have received COVID vaccinations at no cost, tens of millions of Americans lost their jobs and – because their coverage was tied to employment – lost their health insurance as well. Now that the federal government has demonstrated its capacity and efficiency on the vaccinations front, it must overhaul the American health care system so that nobody goes without care. 

We’re talking about permanent expansion of Affordable Care Act subsidies. We’re talking about extending health coverage to 4 million low-income families who’ve suffered because their GOP-led states refused to expand Medicaid. We’re talking about expanding Medicare to 55-year-olds – a policy that was put on the table under President Obama!

There’s so much that needs to be done to fix our health care system – but now that the United States finally has the momentum from COVID vaccinations, it’s imperative that the federal government leverage that momentum to expand and improve health care in America.

If you agree, we’re asking you to take action to urge the federal government to do just that. We’ve put together a petition calling on Congress to take bold action to fix our health care system – and we’re counting on you to add your name.

TAKE ACTION: Sign the petition to urge Congress to enact big, real, and lasting change in our health care system!

Thank you,
