Organizers: Millions Marching For Medicare 4 All
Millions Marching For Medicare 4 All has coordinated a massive rally in Washington DC on July 24, 2017 on the West Lawn of the Capitol Grounds. Co-founders Beverly Cowling, human resource trainer/speaker and life-long political activist (AL) and Michael Rushnak, retired medical doctor and author (NJ) are passionate crusaders intent on leaving no one 'on the outside looking in'.
The rally in Washington will begin at 3pm and will feature high profile speakers from the medical and political arenas, as well as testimonies from private citizens. Among the many esteemed speakers on the roster are former Ohio State Senator, President of Our Revolution and rising star progressive in the Democratic party, Nina Turner, Ro Khanna (D-CA), and John Conyers (D-MI). Conyers introduced H.R. 676 last December, a bill that would provide funding and framework for a comprehensive universal healthcare plan.
With the repeal of the Affordable Healthcare Act (ACA) looming on the horizon and the two Republican replacement proposals that political analysts feel are more a tax break for the one percent than healthcare for anyone—a large majority of Americans are demanding universal healthcare.
