Lobby and Rally in Support of Single Payer Universal Healthcare
Wednesday, May 27, 2009
47 million Americans are uninsured.
Private insurance rates are rising
faster than inflation and our incomes.
A national, single-payer healthcare
system is the only healthcare reform
option that will cover every American
while saving billions of dollars.
The majority of Americans want it.
The majority of physicians want it.
The only thing missing is the political
will in Washington. |
In coordination with Healthcare-NOW,
single payer activists will be gathering all
over the country to say:
Healthcare Yes!
Insurance Companies No!
Make Healthcare
a Human Right!
Lobby State Legislators
Support State Senate Resolution in Support of HR 676, the federal Single Payer bill.
Urge NYS lawmakers to adopt a State Single Payer Healthcare for All Program (A2356/S2370).
