Millions Marching for Medicare-for-All is a nationwide effort to hold rallies and marches in order to build momentum during the debate over the future of healthcare in this country to pass the only real solution to our healthcare problems, which is Medicare-for-All.

The plan is to meet at Rose Hill Cemetary to offer homage to those that have died due to lack of access to healthcare, and march through the adjacent neighborhood to the courthouse on the square. We will have a PA system there and will have Rob Deppert introduce speakers to speak in support of Medicare-for-All. Our first speaker will be Indiana's most visible and active single payer activist Dr. Rob Stone, then some folks who will give their own personal testimonies about not having access to adequate healthcare. Next, we will invite congressional candidates in the ninth district for short speeches in support of Medicare for all (even inviting Trey).We currently have four congressional candidates who have confirmed that they support Medicare-for-All and have asked to be there. Rob Deppert will make a final comment and invite anyone on Medicare that believes in Medicare-for-All to come on stage at the end. 

Come out and enjoy a rousing evening to help spark a movement to push the political class to support the United States joining the modern world with single payer universal Medicare-for-All healthcare. And to establish healthcare as a right, not a privilege.
