A grassroots, informal group of
progressive health professionals
mobilizing voters to win 2018 elections for pro-health candidates.

[On Call For Democracy @OnCall4Democ]

To open up, we need #TestTraceIsolate systems.

To get that, we need a shared understanding of presymptomatic transmission and contact tracing, and political pressure built around it.

To have that, we need people organizing.

Want to organize?

We used our voice as health workers and students to mobilize voters for Jeff Van Drew.

We are pissed off that he has shown himself to be without courage, integrity, or principle.

Bottom line: You suck, @CongressmanJVD.

#MedStudentTwitter + #MedTwitter, want to beat Trump?

Use your voice as a physician to make a difference.

Better to get started with campaigns - and with developing your own civic habits - sooner rather than later. 1/

For our patients:
✅ Vote

Letter writing to register new voters is important.

Using your voice as a health worker can make these letters even more powerful.
