RSVP below for an important healthcare town hall on Sunday, October 5th from 2pm to 4pm at the LGBT Center in the West Village NYC.
What would guaranteed, comprehensive healthcare mean for you and your community?
Please join us to discuss how the New York Health Act — our state's universal healthcare bill — will greatly expand healthcare for everyone who lives or works full time in NY and make it truly affordable for all. We will also discuss how to fight back against current threats to cut and privatize traditional, public Medicaid and Medicare, and threats to immigrant, disability, LGBTQIA and reproductive rights, and the barriers to healthcare that are impacting you and your community.
