Join the Health Care is a Human Right Campaign on Tuesday, April 7th for an online Town Hall
https://www.workerscenter.org/calendar/2020/04/07/pandemic-response-town-hall-online
We'll be discussing:
- How we can have each others' backs through this crisis
- What this all means for poor and working-class families who were *already* struggling to make ends meet
- How we can organize in this moment for the economy and health care system we really need
In this unprecedented public emergency, the Campaign is calling on Governor Scott and the VT legislature to immediately:
1. Expand Medicaid eligibility to all Vermont residents while moving to implement universal, public financing as laid out in Act 48.
2. Establish public authority to direct Vermont's hospitals and clinics, ensuring they stay open through the crisis and beyond by diverting resources from overpaid executives to frontline providers and the health of our communities.
