Celebrate this Labor Day by telling Congress to listen to the people and support Medicare for All. More than 70% of Americans support the legislation — it’s time more members of Congress support it too. Friends, For decades, the labor movement has been on the frontlines of…

This anti-MFA group is crumbling

Our opponents won’t rest. In fact, they’ll likely spend even more money to peddle fear and propaganda against Medicare for All. It’s on all of us to combat them with grassroots organizing like we always have. Friends, Since last summer, the Partnership for America’s Heal…

Add your name today and join us in demanding that ABC host a real, fully dedicated health care debate

Tragic. Heartbreaking. Infuriating.

We are sickened and angered. We all should be. These aren’t the first patients to be brutalized by this health care system, and unless we do something to change it, they won’t be the last. Friends, On Friday, a couple in Ferndale, Washington was found dead in their apartm…

Did you see the debate

Medicare for All was once again the centerpiece of the Democratic debate last night. But if we’re being honest, it was a little messy. The moderators let the discussion run wild, and a whole lot of corporate-funded talking points got blended in. Hey friends, Medicare for A…

Heads in the sand

The #1 way to convince Congress to support Medicare for All is by confronting them, face to face, with the real consequences of their actions. I wanted to make sure you saw this, friends. We’re trying to collect real stories from real people all over the country about thei…
