#HealthcareJustice is a #PublicEducation issue!
We're a group of CA educators working to build awareness & support for #SinglePayer.
Check out our toolkit to learn more about #CalCare, how it relates to public ed, and how to start organizing locally.

Medicare for All is more popular than ever. Recent polls show that 90% of Democratic voters and 63% of all voters support it.

A public option:
- is still insurance-based
- costs more than our current system
- leaves millions without coverage
- leaves healthcare unaffordable for most
Medicare for All:
- covers everyone
- saves families money
- creates jobs
- expands coverage
- cuts spending
- eliminates copays, premiums and deductibles.
Anything short of universal healthcare with Medicare for All is fiscally and morally irresponsible.
Reminder:
Planned Parenthood, like Becerra, does *NOT* support #SinglePayer healthcare in CA, even though it would be the most comprehensive system to GUARANTEE full reproductive rights & healthcare for every woman & child (not just "access" & piecemeal "safety nets").
#CalCare
Planned Parenthood California CEO @jodihicks knows that I will be a Governor who will fight for and protect reproductive rights. I will make sure that everyone has a safety net and has access to the care they need.
New poll: health care costs are Americans' biggest financial fear.
Bigger than rent. Bigger than groceries.
And, according to the WA Post, Family coverage now costs $27,000 a year. $27,00 a year!!
This absolute gall of @GavinNewsom to pull this deceptive shit, again. 🤬
These were Gavin's #SinglePayer tweets when he was running for Governor in 2017...then he spent his entire time in office covertly sabotaging #CalCare while being elusive & dishonest about it.
#GavinLies
Gavin Newsom ran on single-payer when he first ran for governor in 2018. He had 8 years to follow through on his promise and yet, time and time again, he did everything in his power to stop it.
Have you heard of the moral injury created by practicing medicine in a for-profit health care system? PNHP explains ---> https://t.co/0E8C6QNbtE

And there it is...the proof that @XavierBecerra was lying to voters when he said he supported #SinglePayer healthcare.
Even if single-payer is not your issue, trustworthiness should be...and Becerra has shown he is not to be trusted.
Vote @TomSteyer.
@XavierBecerra@CMAdocs This is yet another sign telling us Becerra does not actually support #SinglePayer like 86% of California Democratic voters do. CMA has notoriously opposed & actively worked to sabotage #CalCare. They would never endorse a candidate they thought was serious about single-payer. 🤨
Single-payer would streamline all of this while eliminating networks, deductibles, co-pays, premiums, & surprise bills.
Better healthCARE w a cost-savings should be a no-brainer, but health corps & execs making $$ off our suffering won't let the politicians they've bought do it.
Rep. John Larson takes a stand for Medicare for All in committee hearing. Begins at 1:44:35 and ends at 1:50:45. We must insist that all of Congress become bold and vocal in the fight for Improved Medicare for All, free from profit. #M4A#singlepayer

You shouldn’t need a “good job” to see a doctor.
Single-payer means:
✔️ No networks
✔️ No surprise bills
✔️ No choosing between rent & care
That’s the direction California should go, and Tom Steyer has a plan for it.
I really wish we would have seen this fire for #CalCare from Tony during his time as State Supt. He could have been using that position of influence to highlight the benefits #SinglePayer policy would have on student achievement, district budgets, and ed workers.
@Ed4SinglePayer
A 2021 study concluded that switching to single payer health care would save $450 billion dollars annually. Why are we unnecessarily spending $450 billion every year?

Woah. Was not expecting to see single-payer health care in this video. Very glad to see Tom connecting the dots: Hollywood needs CalCare to survive. Hopefully our work had something to do with this.
CA nurses are endorsing @TomSteyer for Governor — and here's why: He's the only candidate with us 100% on single-payer.
We are furious that #CalCare failed this week. Our patients can't wait. It's past time California had a governor who supports health care for all Californians.
