We fight to guarantee health care as a human right in the name of Danny and the countless number of Americans who have lost life, limb, and/or been financially devastated for insurance exec profits, and the politicians that enable this β€œmoney or your life” insurance system.

Health Care For Us

The only time Dems fight for #MedicareforAll is when a GOP is Pres or Gov. Look at history of CA single payer bills at hc4us.org When GOP Gov- Dem supermajority passed the bill. When Dem Gov- same supermajority kills the bill every time. Both parties take $ from Medical Industrial Complex

β€˜It’s a death sentence’: US health insurance system is failing, say doctors Firms including United Healthcare have denied basic scans and taken months to reconsider, physicians say

Last year PNHP had the opportunity with CalCare AB2200 to take a big step to make national single-payer real, they backed away to give room to insurance friendly incrementalism they now say doesn’t work (SB770).

Members of PNHP CA cautioned PNHP National that the purpose of SB 770, sponsored by Healthy California Now, was to undermine single-payer bill, AB 2200. In response, PNHP National disbanded the CA chapter.
