Your Action of the Week: "Support Health Care for All in Oregon" We are closer than ever to passing the Health Care for All Oregon Bill which establishes a Universal Health Care Commission and puts Oregon on the leading edge of the path to Single Payer. As the bill is in the Ways and Means committee, we need you to persist in contacting your legislators to urge them to move SB 770 A4 and have a Public Hearing and Work Session. The countdown has started to end of session and we must get ahead of any opposition. We must insist that now is the time to get on the real path to where everyone gets the care they need when they need it--a system free of out-of-control costs and denials of care! To find your legislator: https://www.oregonlegislature.gov/ If your legislator is on either of these committees, it is especially important that you contact them! Say "there needs to be a Public Hearing scheduled on SB 770A with amendment A4 to create a Universal Health Care Commission." Many of those on the Committee are already sponsors but they need strong reminding of the need for a real health care system. Find Sponsors here. Please contact the Co-Chairs of Joint Ways and Means and Co-Chairs of Human Services Subcommittee Let them know that "we need a Public Hearing and Work Session on SB 770A and the amended 770-A4." Tell Your Health Care Story.
