We know Americans are rightly angry about our health care system. NOW is the time to harness that energy in the policy fight for Medicare for All!
The U.S. health care system is only getting worse as greedy insurance companies, Big Pharma, and private equity firms find new ways to make excessive profits from illness, leaving working families in worse health and increasing levels of medical debt.
Americans recognize the need for a health care system that serves their needs. We know that peer countries with universal health care systems have better quality of life. However, we also know that the question of what to do and how to get there frequently leads to proposals for incremental changes that won't fix the massive problems in our broken health care system.
We also know what we're up against. From the incoming Trump administration that is threatening to roll back any progress on health care to the corporations that are profiting from price gouging and denying care, we're going to need an unprecedented social movement in order to win the health care system that every American deserves as a guaranteed right, Medicare for All.
Join Public Citizen co-president Robert Weissman alongside U.S. Representative Debbie Dingell (MI-6), co-author of the Medicare for All bill in the House of Representatives (HR-3421 in the 118th Congress), to learn about why we chose Medicare for All as our gold standard, how it would work when implemented, and what we need to do as advocates to win it.
