Feb 25th: Healthcare Actions

Start: Saturday, February 25, 2017 2:00 PM

Hello, fellow activists! As we all know, our country is in for some MAJOR healthcare changes. Senator Bernie Sanders has requested a DAY OF ACTION to fight for the importance of everyone's right to acquire affordable and substantial healthcare. This event will take place all across our country on this date. The topic of healthcare includes such a broad spectrum of elements; such as, taking away the clause of pre-existing conditions, Medicare for all, prescription drug prices, affordability, insurance companies being for profit, and the list goes on. I, myself have worked in healthcare for years and I can tell you, some of the things I have tried to make sense of, have been completely unjust. When Bernie was running for President, many nurses unions endorsed him because of his knowledge and fight for these things. This is a topic which affects us all! Maybe not at this moment, but if you lose your job, if you become sick, or have to endure any other life-changing events in the future. We are calling on all of you who feel that seniors shouldn't have to take busses to Canada to be able to afford their medications. We are calling on those who feel it is abhorrent to turn down someone for healthcare coverage because they have cancer and will cause the insurance company too much money. We are calling on those of you who feel that people should not have to go into bankruptcy, just to try to maintain their health. This is an urgent matter and we must have solidarity and fight for these things! Please join us in standing up for those who are terrified about the future and whom have lost all hope!
