We are calling on Representative Darren Soto to fight for our health, safety and well-being by signing on as a co-sponsor of the Medicare for All Bill, H.R.1976, which was introduced on the House Floor in March. WHY Medicare for All? Our current health care system is ineffective, inefficient and and expensive. It serves insurance companies instead of people. It pays corporations and complicates health care for people. This is the only health care reform action that would: Replace the existing broken patchwork of private, for-profit insurance and supplemental public programs with a universal, single-payer system that includes everyone living in the U.S. from birth to end of life; Guarantee access to high quality, culturally competent, comprehensive services, including medical, dental, hearing, vision, prescription drugs, medical devices, mental health, addiction recovery, primary care, preventative care, harm reduction, reproductive care, maternal and infant care, long-term care in facilities and at home — at no cost to patients; Put patients back at the center of our health care system by allowing us to choose providers and treatments that are right for us and our families; Improve the quality and availability of care by rebuilding the rural health care infrastructure, funding evidence-based solutions to the overdose crisis, setting standards for providers on culturally competent care, and addressing the racial and gender disparities in health care at their root causes. Our lives have been in the hands of for-profit health insurance and pharmaceutical companies for too long, and the damage this has caused to our families and communities cannot be undone. Profits have no place in healthcare. But a different future is possible with Improved Medicare for All. We need you to be a health care champion, Representative Soto: co-sponsor H.R.1976, Medicare for All, now! https://actionnetwork.org/petitions/representative-soto-co-sponsor-hr1976-the-medicare-for-all-act
