SUMMARY:Town Hall - Vancouver (with Clark County League of Women Voters)
DESCRIPTION:Join Whole Washington and the Clark County League of Women Voters for a community conversation about the woes of our current for-profit system and how establishing the Washington Health Trust could be a real solution for Washington state. Saving lives and saving money \nWe are creating spaces for open dialogue about our healthcare system.  In some way\, we’re all too familiar with the failures of the fragmented\, for-profit system that we have today.  Failures like: \n\ninadequate staffing\nhospital closures\nchallenges with navigating insurance coverage\ndenials\, networks\, and per-authorizations\nsurprise bills and medical debt\n\nWe know we can do better. By establishing the Washington Health Trust and designing a publicly funded\, nonprofit system\, we can offer comprehensive care to all Washington State residents.  Patients\, providers\, unions\, small businesses\, our entire community will benefit. When we disconnect healthcare from employment\, we live longer and save money. \nWhole Washington organizers will present about 20 minutes worth of material and then move into Q & A. Everyone has a story and we want to hear yours! We’ll highlight how the Washington Health Trust can resolve many existing issues and get us on track to a brighter future. \nThese town halls are non-partisan\, educational events\, open to everyone. Please join us and let’s increase our people power! Together\, we can make Universal Healthcare a reality. \nWe will be having a simultaneous online Town Hall for this event. If you would like to attend this event virtually please RSVP below. \n \n\nSpread the word:

This is a non-partisan\, educational event – open to the public.  Everyone has a story and we want to hear yours.  We will also provide highlights regarding how the Washington Health Trust will resolve or begin to resolve your issues. and answer your questions. \nWe believe we can do better by establishing the Washington Health Trust and designing a nonprofit system that works for patients and providers\, without the corrupting influence of for-profit insurance companies.

SUMMARY:Whole Washington Presents: Healing US Documentary – Spokane
DESCRIPTION:Join Whole Washington volunteers as we screen the incredible Documentary – Healing US – Saturday April 26th at 7pm \nThe Magic Lantern Theatre – Tickets – Suggested donation of $14.45 in honor of our first ever companion bill in the House! SB5233/HB1445 regarding establishing the Washington Health Trust. \nMAKE A DONATION HERE\nHealing US: Narrated by Lady Liberty (Susan Sarandon)\, Healing Us stands as the final case for American healthcare to be free and accessible to all—through a single-payer system.\nAfter a deadly virus\, an international social revolution\, an insurrection of our capital\, and the beginning of the collapse of our two-party system\, are we finally ready for something new? Something better?\n68\,000+ Americans will die this year due to lack of adequate healthcare and 500\,000+ families will file for bankruptcy due to medical expenses. These numbers only represent a fraction of the trauma that millions of people experience everyday in the American for-profit healthcare industry. Yet numerous polls have shown that over 70% of Americans support switching to a universal healthcare system. \nUsing an all-star lineup of heavy-hitters in the healthcare movement\, Healing US walks through all key points of the arguments in favor of a universal\, single-payer healthcare system. \nHealing US is a rallying cry to the American people. We are reclaiming control of our hearts and bodies. We are redefining what it means to be American. Healing US challenges the audience to care: not only about ourselves\, but also our friends\, family\, and loved ones. \nSpread the word:
