We’re coming up on some big events this Fall that could change the game for our work to win Medicare for All.
We need to get organized, which is why we’re circling up as a movement, and we want you there.
These strategy calls are a key way that we stay united and informed as a movement. Especially during Covid when we aren’t together in person, these meetings are a one-stop shop to get caught up and plugged in quickly.
They don’t happen often, but when they do, it’s really important that we have as many people on the call as possible. And because this is a virtual gathering, you can participate and ask questions while you cook dinner, go for a walk, or even fold laundry.
In the coming months, it’s very possible that HR 1976, the Medicare for All Act of 2021, will have committee hearings in the House. If and when these hearings happen, it will be a huge opportunity to mobilize – and we need to be prepared.
In addition, Senator Bernie Sanders is expected to release the Medicare for All companion bill in the Senate this fall, and we’ll need to put pressure on every senator to sign on as a cosponsor.
We need all hands on deck to make this fall as powerful as it can be. There will be many opportunities to push our movement forward – but only if we have everyone onboard.
Hope to see you Thursday.
