Hi John,
Meet Louize, a voter in San Francisco. She's a small business owner, and a cancer survivor. In this two minute micro-documentary, hear Louize talk about the failures of our healthcare system.
"The way the system is here...when you fall, you can fall really hard."
|

"A system that is broken."
Americans spend more of their GDP on healthcare than any other country in the world, with worse outcomes, lower life expectancy and higher infant mortality.
Every day of the campaign Agatha hears a story like Louize's, of hard working people fearing a medical expense that could wipe them out. More than 70% of the American public supports a single-payer solution - yet our lawmakers, including the incumbent Nancy Pelosi, are more responsive to pharmaceutical and health insurance lobbies spending billions to keep this profits-over-people system intact.
Agatha supports healthcare as a human right. No one - not successful business owners like Louize, not you - should worry that an unexpected illness or accident will financially destroy them. It should not be a necessity for Americans to crowdfund their medical bills on social media. We can do better.

We hope you'll follow our video series SF Stories and meet the voters of San Francisco like Louize. Your donation helps Agatha raise her profile, letting voters know that this election cycle, they can choose a representative for the 100%.
With gratitude,
Team Agatha
