Good Day Healthcare Advocates
Every day we advocate for better healthcare for all of us is a good day. Thank you also to all of you advocates who have recently subscribed and to those who have asked for particular topics. Please send topics in the comment button below. Thank you.
The newsletter will return Tuesday January 17th. My wife and I are preparing for some lobbying activities next week with our representatives in Olympia, Washington.
Please use this time to consider how we can all treat each other better and more fairly.
Martin Luther King Jr. Day is Monday January 16th. It is an appropriate time to remind ourselves that in 1965 the advent of Medicare was an important step in desegregating hospitals in the United States.
Now it is time to expand Medicare to include all of us because all of us matter. Be well, advocates.
