Come to Our Winter General Meeting

Dear Health Advocates:

Thank you for being with us for another year of organizing and advocacy in the healthcare and health justice movement. As we prepare for next year’s legislative advocacy, we’re excited to invite you to our Winter General Meeting on January 6th where our sponsoring member organizations will vote on our Policy Agenda, along with important remarks from guest speakers. Much of the Policy Agenda will reflect items we’ve worked on in the past, but we know that the biggest theme of the upcoming session will be finding new sources of revenue to prevent cuts to essential services because of the large budget shortfall.

We share below some good news regarding increased favorability for Medicare for All, while we continue to work towards that national goal both by protecting and improving Medicare and by building a universal health plan here in our state.

As we wind down 2025, we send everyone the very best holiday wishes. Humans have been celebrating the Solstice, the return of the sun, since before the dawn of agriculture and organized religions, and that shared celebration has always had foundations in how our communities take care of each other. So let’s keep building our solidarity and forge ahead to make 2026 the best we can. Thank you for all that you do.
