Single Payer Healthcare March – Saturday

When: Saturday, November 19th at noon
Where: Waterfront Park at Salmon and Naito
Supporters: Jobs with Justice, PNHP, Mad as Hell Doctors, Nurses for Single Payer, OSPC, Healthcare-NOW!, Students for a National Health Program and Occupy Portland

Under a single payer system, all Oregonians would be covered for all medically necessary services, including: doctor, hospital, preventive, long-term care, mental health, reproductive health care, dental, vision, prescription drug and medical supply costs. There would be no premiums or deductibles, simply a dedicated tax that everyone pays into, much like Medicare.

Come out on Saturday and join us in this fight for this important human right. Come join us in our fight to get Wall Street out of healthcare. We need as many people as possible out there. We rally at noon and we march at 1pm. Be loud, be proud and tell the 1% that we’re mad as hell and we’re not taking it anymore!
