Tell Nancy Pelosi to Sponsor Single Payer Bill
Sunday, April 9, 2017 12:00 PM - 2:00 PM
Location: St. Johns Well Child and Family Center (Los Angeles, CA) 808 W. 58th St. Los Angeles, CA 90037
California has the highest child poverty rate in the nation. So John Lewis, Karen Bass and Nancy Pelosi are coming to do a rally. Guess which one of the three has not signed onto John Conyers single payer health care bill which he's been introducing for 14 years? A bill which would help poor children have health care.
And guess who said on TV: ?I wanted single payer-- I mean, I'd love a single payer, but we?re not there. I wanted a public option, which would address that,? Pelosi responded, adding that Democrats want to improve the health care law, while Republicans want to repeal it.
Well, a public option would not address anything. It holds health care hostage to private corporations, who make money denying care. We have to make sure we go straight to a singer payer Medicare for All system like every other advanced country that treats health care as a human right.
Also, CA Assemblymember Autumn Burke will be there. We would like her to co-author Ricardo Lara's single payer bill in CA SB 562.
We will not disrupt this event. But we will all hold signs that say Single Payer Now or Co-sponser Conyers Bill or Medicare for All Now. And maybe we can do some chants at an appropriate time.
