The holidays are here, and while some may say that things are going “back to normal,” Covid-19 is still here, and one thing has never changed.
The Thanksgiving dinner table is bound to get political — especially with this month’s midterm election results at the top of everyone’s mind.
Together, we can use this holiday season to organize friends and family around the issues that matter to us. To help you out, we built a tool to practice and learn the best ways to talk to friends and relatives about Medicare for All.
By the time Thanksgiving dinner rolls around, you’ll be equipped with all the best tips and tricks to turn those tense political debates into an opportunity to win your family over to support Medicare for All. Try out the tool here. It will only take a minute or two to run through the various scenarios and hone your persuasion skills!
Try the web tool »We know the vast majority of people are unhappy with our hugely expensive, profit-driven health care system. And as full-time organizers, we also know that when we share stories about this system and talk about how unjust it is — rather than argue in circles or shame those who disagree — we can make a much more persuasive argument for Medicare for All.
The challenges of the last three years and the results of the midterm elections have made the case for Medicare for All stronger than ever before. This is our chance to have personal conversations with friends and family about how we can fight together for a health care system that truly guarantees health care to all.
We know that when we approach these conversations by sharing stories with empathy and understanding — rather than trying to “win” the argument — we can actually win people over much more easily.
This tactic works. It’s called the Response Cycle, and now YOU can use it this holiday season and finally convince those aunts, uncles, cousins, and neighbors that Medicare for All is the best and only fix for our broken health care system.
Together, we can have the discussions necessary to mobilize vast public support for Medicare for All. Table by table, we will slowly but surely grow this movement.
Happy Thanksgiving from all of us to you and yours!
— Jasmine Ruddy and the entire NNU Medicare for All team
