Text Bank for M4A!
Join a national week of Medicare 4 All Action via zoom on
Nov 13, 9:00 am to 11:00 am HST
Sending mass text messages might not sound exciting, but think of how much muscle Pharma recently applied to block efforts to lower prescription drug prices in President Biden’s BBB plan?
Here we remain in the USA, the only nation with a law, Medicare Part D, which prohibits part of the the government, Medicare, from negotiating prescription drug prices.
Let’s not take it any more!
By joining this text bank, you will help the National Nurses Union to identify M4A supporters in several key districts nation wide. We find them, and then local activists invite them into local Patients Over Profits campaigns to: 1. Pressure ‘moderate’ democrats to stop accepting campaign donations from health insurance or pharmaceutical companies (aka Senator Schatz and Hirono and Rep Case. Not sure about Rep Kahele) 2. Co sign and actively support HR1976 M4A by hosting public events. At these events the facts of single payer can be taught and the massive disinformation against single payer can be debunked.
First, RSVP here on the NNU map to receive the Honolulu zoom link.

At this zoom meeting you’ll receive a link to set up your own Thru Text account, and then instruction on how to send 300 texts in a row. When responses come in, you’ll categorize the responses for activists in that state to follow up with. In this way we can help to identify thousands of new M4A supporters who will join ongoing pressure campaigns!
NNU text banks are ongoing virtually everyday, so if you can’t make this one, you can join easily join another one.
