Medicare for All March in San Francisco

CPA invites you join progressive organizations throughout the Bay Area for Medicare for All March in San Francisco this Saturday, July 24th. There are over 40 Medicare for All Marches in cities across the country that we stand in solidarity with for national day of action.

As we continue to fight the worst healthcare crisis in a century, Americans still suffer from an inefficient and unsustainable healthcare system. Experts have long said universal, single-payer healthcare would save thousands of lives and billions of dollars annually. March for Medicare for All—a volunteer-led, grassroots movement—encourages people from across the country to stand in solidarity with one another and to continue to apply pressure on all fronts.

Meetup Info: We will start our day at 10am at the Embarcadero Plaza (1 Ferry Building), march down Market Street to the Civic Center Plaza where the post-march rally will take place 11:30am to 1pm.
