Patient and Health Advocates Protest To Stop Tax Votes Which Threaten Healthcare
Starting Monday, Dec 18 at 1:00 pm, and continuing through Tuesday, Dec 19, doctors, nurses and medical students are joining with patients to STOP the VOTE on the GOP’s tax cut that takes away health care from millions of Americans and raises insurance premiums on millions more.
Stop the tax vote with us! #GOPTaxScam #KillTheBill
The House thinks they are going to vote on this villainous tax bill on Tuesday. The Senate on Wednesday.
They have another thing coming.
Join us on Monday for media events, last-ditch lobby meetings, and then to plan actions for Tuesday and Wednesday to head this bill off at the pass, and send these plutocratic pursesnatchers packing.
The action is organized by the Center for Popular Democracy, Housing Works, the Women’s March, ACT UP, CPD’s Ady Barkan and a national network of birddoggers who have been fighting all year to#protectpatients.

This is a must-pass bill for Trump, Ryan, McConnell, and their allies. Even if we lose, we’re making it more and more costly to them to take our health care away. We’ve fought them all year and delayed their disastrous agenda.
They’re going to try to vote on this bill Monday or Tuesday. We are going to stop them.
The tax bill will decimate health care. Congress has been ignoring renewing funding for the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP), community health centers, and safety net hospitals that serve large numbers of uninsured patients.
Buses and car pools are being organized from communities within a day’s travel of DC, including NYC. Sign up for more info!
Next week will be our FINAL chance to stop the tax bill, so IT’S NOW OR NEVER to PUT OUR BODIES ON THE LINE!
