Call Your State Senator to Vote Yes

on SB 810,

the California Universal Healthcare Act

It is the only legislation that makes Medicare better, saves money, and provides universal healthcare.

The Vote is Thursday, January 28

 

Dear Single Payer Healthcare Activist,

 

Senate Bill 810 is scheduled for a vote in California's State Senate on Thursday, January 28.

16 of the 40 State Senators are co-authors of SB 810.

The co-authors are Alquist (D-13), Cedillo (D-22), Corbett (D-10), DeSaulnier (D-7), Florez (D-16), Hancock (D-09), Leno (D-3), Lowenthal (27), Oropeza (D-28), Padilla (D-20),  Pavley (D-23), Price (D-26), Romero (D-24), Steinberg (D-6), Wiggins (D-2), and Yee (D-8).

Please call your State Senator to vote yes.

If your senator is a co-author, thank them for their support and ask them to work hard to pass SB 810.

 

 

Nationally, the Republicans are trying to stop health reform.

They are saying that Democrats are not listening or that the people are speaking.  This is in reference to the Republican win in Massachusetts.

It is important that legislators know their constituents want a healthcare system minus the insurance industry – SB 810.

 

If your senator is not a co-author, please ask them to vote yes on SB 810 and to become a co-author.  SB 810 delivers healthcare to everyone, is comprehensive, saves billions of dollars, and is publicly accountable.
