UPDATE: AB-1400 – CalCare escaped the Appropriations Committee! WATCH THIS GREAT SHORT VIDEO and then call AND write an email to your assemblymember on how important universal healthcare is to you and yours!
People who won’t wear masks, social distance, or vaccinate themselves to prevent getting or spreading COVID, often proclaim they are fighting in the name of FREEDOM!
How about fighting for actual freedom? Citizens of wealthy countries with universal health care systems, cannot understand why we’ve allowed ourselves to be caged, and cowed by an army of rapacious for-profit insurance companies (private equity firms now own more than 25% of hospitals!), middle-men, pharmaceutical firms, legislators and lobbyists. But we’ve been doing it for so long, we’ve forgotten how barbaric our system is. Watching Americans talk about accessing health care in other countries remind us that it’s time to fight for the freedom they have.
Action #1: Tell your assemblymember what the freedom of knowing health care is available when you need it, no matter who you are or what you do, means to you!
Tell your Assemblymember what the freedom of accessing health care without financial worries would mean to you and your family. That, under AB 1400, it would no longer matter who you are, what you do, what type of insurance you have or your income. Ask him/her to actively support AB 1400 Guaranteed Health Care for All (CalCare). Don’t put this off. This needs to be voted on by 1/31.
KEEP A COPY OF YOUR EMAIL – FINGERS CROSSED WE’LL BE SENDING THE SAME MESSAGE TO OUR STATE SENATOR!
