Please continue to ask friends to sign both of these petitions.
@POTUS @NNU Now 2 National petitions for #Medicareforall! Everyone should sign & share both! #PassM4A. Goal is for Congress to pass and the President to sign bills so that all Americans have healthcare.
On behalf of Demand Universal Healthcare, and under my own name, as it’s Director, I started a petition around March 28th that addresses all Senators, all Congressmen, and President Biden. That petition and its link are directly below. We are nearing 3000 signatures. change dot org will not bombard you with continuous emails and money requests. I have been tweeting President about the petition, and with signers comments.
The other National Petition is by several National single-payer organizations, and associated partners, led by NNU. That petition and its link follow the one I wrote. Read the subscriber options at the bottom of their email. Opt in or out of who you do and do not want continual emails and money requests from. If you do not uncheck the box to opt out, 24 different organizations may start showing up in your email and texts. I signed.
Let me be clear: this is not a competition and you should sign and promote both! The goal is to have Congress pass and the President sign bills so that all Americans have healthcare for all their parts and functions!
Deliver Universal Healthcare, Expanded and Improved Medicare for All Necessary Medical
SWIFTLY DELIVER UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE to all Americans by passing Expanded and Improved #MedicareforALL Legislation, as a basic Human Right. Universal Healthcare is essential to our well-being and to the economic stability of our nation. #MedicareForAll, a Universal Healthcare, Single-Payer Coverage for all Americans.
�Over 89 million working aged Americans had inadequate health insurance in 2022 (43%) INSURANCE DOES NOT EQUAL CARE!
Our insurance patchwork is an abysmal failure. The Commonwealth annual survey found that 43% of adults 19-64 are inadequately insured; 46% skip care for financial reasons; and 42% have medical bill problems or debt. 582,462 people in the US experience homelessness, 30 million Americans had no health insurance and an additional 89.2 million working age adults in the US are underinsured.
According to the GAO, In 2019, close to 40 thousand people died from a gun injury in the U.S., and about 80 thousand suffered nonfatal injuries.There is no complete information on the health care costs of gun injuries. However, we found: Hospital costs for initial gun injury care were just over $1 billion a year, according to hospital data from 2016 and 2017 (the latest available) Costs associated with physicians' fees (not included in that data) could add 20% to that total. Each year there were about 30,000 hospital stays and 50,000 emergency room visits. Medicaid and other public coverage patients accounted for more than 60% of the costs for this care.
KFF found that 23 million people (nearly 1 in 10 adults) owe significant medical debt. The SIPP survey suggests people in the United States owe at least $195 billion in medical debt. Approximately 16 million people (6% of adults) in the U.S. owe over $1,000 in medical debt and 3 million people (1% of adults) owe medical debt of more than $10,000. Medical debt occurs across demographic groups. But, people with disabilities, those in worse health, and poor or near-poor adults are more likely to owe significant medical debt. We also find that Black Americans, and people living in the South or in Medicaid non-expansion states were more likely to have significant medical debt.
Saving on premiums, tax credits, lower deductibles, narrow markets, and subsidies DO NOT equal getting care! We would be more globally competitive with #MedicareForAll covering the healthcare needs of all of our workers, like our counterparts in other countries.
Insurance companies STEAL patient’s healthcare when its “Doctors” hit automatic via #AI to mass DENY millions of claims without reading or any consideration. MAKE THIS ILLEGAL AND PASS MEDICARE FOR ALL, Universal Healthcare.
We must have healthcare from birth to death with no premiums, no copays, no deductibles, no out of pockets which covers all basic and necessary medical care including hospital, doctor, pharmaceutical, dental, vision, hearing, mental health, reproductive care, and long-term care.
It is time to move forward together with Universal Healthcare. Americans are well past ready, we just need The Administration and Congress onboard.
* Transcend Greed
* Transcend Insurance
* Transcend Privatization
* EXPAND & Improve #MedicareForAll
We cannot afford to continue losing over 68,000 Americans every year due to under insurance or non insurance. Our citizens should not be subjected to bankruptcy at the rate of half a million per year trying to afford the medical costs of staying alive!

Tell Congress: Pass Medicare for All, Now!
Health care is a human right that must be guaranteed for all – and Medicare for All is the only policy solution to achieve guaranteed health care for all.
Medicare for All was just reintroduced in the U.S. House by Rep. Pramila Jayapal and Rep. Debbie Dingell and in the U.S. Senate by Sen. Bernie Sanders. This is a huge moment, and we must take full advantage of it.
Tell Congress to support the Medicare for All Act of 2023 and ensure that every person is guaranteed quality health care regardless of their ability to pay. https://passmedicareforallnow.org
