19 Local Organizations Cosponsor a Rally and March for Improved Medicare for All.

SatURDAY at 11 AM

Mazzoli Federal Bldg., 600 Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Pl., Louisville

We will begin at 11 AM in the park in front of the Federal Building.  We will set up under the trees near the corner of 7th & Chestnut so speakers and participants alike will be in the shade.

We hope you will join with us in demanding that Congress take action by passing a national single payer, improved Medicare for All.  Such a plan would end the tragic denial of care that causes so much suffering and unnecessary loss of life.  We will also be celebrating Medicare’s 56th birthday.

We will have speakers (brief) and music.  At 12 Noon we will march or walk to Breewayy, the square at 6th between Liberty and Jefferson.

There we will place flowers in honor of Breonna Taylor to connect with her profession as a healer, and to link the struggle for health care with the fight to end systemic racism.  We will return to where we began and share refreshments and socialize.

Please join us in lifting up this message to heal the nation by bringing care to all.  Patients not profit.  Everybody in, nobody out.

Please join us and help us to spread the word.
