"Every other industrialized nation in the world recognizes #healthcare is a human right. It’s time the United States of America does as well." - @woodra at today's @WaysMeansCmte hearing on #MedicareForAll
The People's Summit retweeted
Today's @WaysMeansCmte hearing on universal coverage is another step toward comprehensive care for EVERY person living in the United States.
Women's reproductive health, prescription drugs, mental health care, long-term care - and that's just the beginning under #M4A!

Well that went well, @JohnDelaney. 🤣🤣🤣
Presidential candidates, beware. The people are demanding #MedicareForAll and nothing less!!!

This afternoon, a two dozen Santa Barbarians met with our Congressman, @RepCarbajal,who has not yet signed on to #MedicareForAll. I was glad to hear him say healthcare is a human right, but disappointed that he still isn't a supporter.
I guess we'll have to build more power!
The People's Summit retweeted
Last week more than 300 nurses with @NationalNurses teamed up with @AdyBarkan in Washington, D.C. to ask Congress to support #MedicareForAll.
Now, we must capitalize off this energy and momentum, and show our legislators that we won't back down.

This morning we wake up to news that Trump is sending aircraft carriers to Iran, threatening to escalate a trade war with China, and doubling down on support for Guaidó despite the failed plot. His foreign policy is dangerous. Congress must act as a check and voice for restraint.

Under Medicare for All you'll never see headlines like this again.
About 1 in 8 had to resort to borrowing to afford care in the previous year, according to a new survey. 65 million adults say they had a health issue but didn't seek treatment due to cost. cnn.it/2K8SmUa
The People's Summit retweeted
New data shows "American public beaten down" by the high cost of health care.
No half-measures will do. Only #MedicareForAll will provide the healing and relief people need.

I'm producing a series of short #MedicareForAll videos for distribution through @womensmarch,@CPDAction and @SSWorks. This is the 1st in the series and it examines some of the tactical approaches we can take in the fight to win #MedicareForAll. This one is for @AdyBarkan 🦄💌

Here’s a radical idea: Instead of denying paychecks to 800,000 federal workers over Christmas, how about taking away the Koch brothers $1.4 billion tax cut, the $670 million tax cut given to Sheldon Adelson and the $2.2 billion given to Walmart as a result of the Trump tax scam?

U.S. student loan debt outstanding reached a record $1.465 trillion last month.
You know the most revolting part of this crisis?
The federal government makes billions in profits off of student loans each year.
NATIONAL WEEK OF ACTION: FEB 9-13
Thousands have already signed up to host rallies in their towns to win #MedicareForAll!
