Lobby Day Wednesday, October 14th

Dear Friend: Join us for lobby days for single-payer. On both lobby days, we will break into teams and visit Congressional offices with single-payer amendment materials prepared in advance. As Congress moves closer to voting on whatever final legislation is crafted, we want to make sure the single-payer amendments are strongly supported. This may be our final opportunity in this legislative cycle to weigh in. The work done now sets the groundwork for the future and for finally achieving single-payer.
