During this past Saturday’s National Medicare for All Day of Action, with the help of activists on the ground, we organized car caravans — complete with mobile billboard trucks — in 4 key districts around the country.
That night, we also did projection actions onto buildings near the rep's offices. Together, we called on these members of Congress to co-sponsor HR 1976, the Medicare for All Act of 2021.
Our goal is to make these priority representatives — who have all supported Medicare for All legislation in the past and are part of the Congressional Medicare for All Caucus — feel enough local pressure from their constituents that they (finally) sign on to the bill.
After this weekend, we can say with confidence: our plan is working. These representatives are feeling the pressure, and now it’s up to us to make sure we keep up the momentum until they officially sign on to the bill.
If just one of these members of Congress signs on to the bill, it will be a huge victory for our movement. But to keep the pressure on now that our Day of Action has passed, we need all hands on deck.
Thank you for your support!
In solidarity,
