Live stream for universal health car from DSA and Bernie Sanders

From DSA:

I’m excited to invite you to Senator Bernie Sanders’ livestreamed Medicare for All town hall January 23rd! DSA is proud to work with Senator Sanders to promote this event. And DSA chapters all across the country are organizing for universal healthcare and taking the fight to a capitalist class that puts profits before patients.

Check out this video for more information. And you can RSVP here.

This is a great opportunity for DSA chapters and members to hold watch parties for people to learn about Medicare for All and how they can get involved in local and national democratic socialist campaigns. The Democratic Socialists for Medicare for All Campaign is launching a lot of great new stuff:

·         Our website has launched! Keep an eye on medicareforall.dsausa.orgfor all the latest news, including resources to help your chapter get a campaign up and running. This will be our main hub for all things #DSAM4A. Check the site regularly — we’ll be updating it shortly with new features. And don’t forget to follow us on Facebook and Twitter.

·         As the M4A campaign grows, we’ll face new strategic questions. That’s why our strategy plan includes the Political Subcommittee. This committee is tasked with advising the NPC on strategy questions regarding the M4A campaign. The 20 person body will have representatives from key national committees/working groups/commissions and coalition partners. The rest of the committee’s seats will be filled by rank and file DSA members. DSA members interested in helping shape and build the M4A campaign should apply here.

·         The Campaign’s Organizing Sub-Committee helps chapters develop their local campaigns. This month the committee will be holding a call to highlight current M4A work being done across the country and answer chapters’ questions. If you want your chapter to get involved, make sure you’re signed up for the campaign.

Healthcare should be about healing the sick, not giveaways to the rich. We need a system that prioritizes working-class Americans’ health over insurance companies’ profits. And with #DSAM4A, you and I can stand up to the billionaires for real change in working peoples’ lives. Join us!

In solidarity,

Maria Svart, DSA National Director

PS: Starting next week chapters will be able to order their Democratic Socialists for Medicare for All Campaign Kit: organizing guides, informational pamphlets, and of course some sweet #DSAM4A swag. I’ll email you ordering information!
