*Upcoming Event*

On Wednesday, June 21, at 6 p.m. PST, Physicians for a National Health Program (PNHP) is convening a panel of pediatrician leaders to talk about the implications of the "Medicaid unwinding" for as many as 12 million Americans now that the COVID-19 public health emergency has been declared over.
Speakers include Dr. Rhea Boyd, Dr. Marian Earls, Dr. Jane Oski, and PNHP president Dr. Phil Verhoef. The panel will be moderated by PNHP national board member Dr. Sanjeev Sriram.

Single Payer Talking Point & Action

We need universal health care with everyone enrolled for life in one equitable plan. Not multi-tiered care based on income that is hard to access. Even before COVID, millions who qualified for Medicaid didn't get in the system or were dropped unfairly because of onerous enrollment and reporting rules. COVID loosened the rules. Now that's tightened up again with people being deprived of care. Tune into the conversation. Learn, write a letter to the editor. California needs to model universal health care for the country!
News on SB 770
Bill clears Senate, scheduled for Assembly committee

SB 770, having cleared the Senate on a 30-9 vote, is advancing in the Assembly. (Nearly all Senate Democrats voted for it; there were no Republican votes.)

The bill will be the subject of a hearing in the
Assembly Health Committee

on Tuesday, June 27

Mark your calendar and stay tuned for details about how to participate!

This bill is a strategic initiative to build on the positive findings of an official state commission that reported potential savings of $500 billion over 10 years for a California universal healthcare system. Read more about the Healthy California for All Now Campaign here.
