    Medicare for All | California Health Care Justice Tour

    By California Nurses Association | on October 15, 2011
    Posted in: Blog, News

    The Vermont legislature has pioneered a bill creating a path for a universal, publicly funded healthcare system. James Haslam from the Vermont Workers’ Center is coming to California to share their story and inspire Californians to do the same. Donna Smith, featured in the movie “Sicko”, is a community organizer and health care activist with the California Nurses Association/National Nurses United, and will join James on a California Health Care Justice Tour.

    Please join other concerned community members who are committed to making healthcare available to all Californians.

    Together We Can Make This Happen — The California Health Justice Tour is in support of the Campaign For A Healthy California, and is raising funds for it, as well as for the Vermont Workers Center.
