Today, we're celebrating a huge victory.
Medicare for All has not one, not two, but THREE new cosponsors, bringing the total number of cosponsors in Congress up to 121 — a record-breaking milestone for our movement.
This victory is the direct result of months of dedicated organizing, with hundreds of volunteers like you working hard to build momentum in the fight for guaranteed health care for all.
We’ve got big plans to keep growing our movement to pass Medicare for All in Congress, but we’re going to need your help. Will you join us for our Medicare for All National Strategy Call on Monday, Feb. 28, to hear the latest in our fight to win single-payer health care for all?

This major victory demonstrates that organizing works. Last year, a major goal of our campaign was to reach 119 cosponsors for HR 1976 — one more than we had on last session’s Medicare for All bill. Now, with a record-breaking 121 cosponsors on board, we are well on our way to building the movement of support necessary to win Medicare for All in Congress.
This news comes after a difficult week for guaranteed health care in California. Last Monday, we were extremely disappointed that California delayed a vote on our single-payer health care bill known as CalCare.
But our fight continues. We will continue to push harder than ever to pass Medicare for All nationally and in California when there is a new bill next year. We have many opportunities ahead of us to grow our movement for single-payer health care — but we’ll need everyone on board to make it happen.
We’re so excited for what’s to come.
Together,
