Take Action

We need an organized mass movement of people to leave our representatives no choice but to pass the New York Health Act.

We need our local representatives who are already co-sponsors to use their influence to bring the legislation to a vote and show Western New York’s working class they have our backs. We need them to refuse to back down in the face of wealthy health insurance propaganda.

Many of our local representatives are not even co-sponsors of this life-changing legislation. We need to push them to take this step.

Suggested message:

“I am your concerned constituent in [neighborhood or zipcode] and am writing to share that I am disappointed that the New York Health Act (NYHA) has continued not to be voted upon. We are doing our jobs in the community, and need you to deliver on yours by fighting for universal healthcare. 

WIth President Trump’s impending cuts to Medicaid and further plans to privatize Medicare on the horizon, I am urging you to do the right thing and actually fight for the advancement of NYHA because all New Yorkers deserve comprehensive healthcare that is free at the point of service. We need to end private profit in public programs, and the rich getting even richer, and New York can lead on this issue. I am prepared to mobilize others on this issue.”
