Tell Congress: We Need Medicare For All!

On Veterans’ Day, Progressive Democrats of America (PDA) renews our call for Healthcare Not Warfare. We demand a rapid end to wars and occupations, and diverting funds away from killing and destruction to meeting human needs such as Medicare For All (MFA). We’re closer than ever before to a historic Congressional vote!

This #MedicareForAllMonday, we at PDA are gearing up for a great monthly webinar / conference call this Wednesday, November 13th at 9p ET / 6p PT, (see details below).

PDAers Demanding Medicare For All

We need Improved Medicare For All which will save 10,000s of lives and 100s of $billions every year. Help PDA and our allies force the politicians to listen!

Join us Wednesday for our webinar / conference call.

We will be discussing (among other things):

• the plan for financing #MFA proposed by Democratic presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren,
• some great news from PDA activists in CA concerning a recent fight over proposed language in the California Democratic Party 2020 platform that promoted a “Confuse-the-Public Option,”
• the roll out of the revised State Based Universal HC bill,
• and a local but very significant victory by advocates in having a MFA resolution passed by the City of Los Angeles.
•
