We’ve had a great start to 2018 already – with spirited supporters at the Rose Bowl parade, canvassing events and signups for future events. When the Select Committee on Health Care met for the first time back in October, they didn’t expect to be greeted by a sea of red-shirt wearing SB 562 supporters that overflowed out of the hearing room. At the second hearing in December, we were promised that SB 562 would (finally) be addressed from the stage.
Now it’s time to show up in force and ensure that our voices are heard. While nearly every public commenter has been in favor of the Healthy California Act, the hearing schedule and speaker selection was designed to exclude us. But we just keep on going!
The Select Committee has just announced their third hearing, to be held in Sacramento at the Capitol. This hearing is another opportunity for us to demonstrate the powerful public support that the movement for SB 562 has built to the very legislators that have the ability to make universal healthcare a reality.
Join us for a rally to call for Guaranteed Healthcare for All directly prior to the start of the hearing.
