Spot on.

Our neighbors in Oregon are making incredible progress toward a universal health care system! www.healthcare-brew.com/stories/2025...

Join us in Vancouver, WA for a community get-together for universal healthcare in Washington! We'll be discussing the latest efforts to make healthcare more affordable and accessible for all Washingtonians. Come share your story, ask questions, and find out how you can get involved!

A single-payer healthcare system, where the government is the sole payer for medical services, could significantly reduce the widespread fraud and tax evasion perpetuated by the for-profit health insurance industry. 🧵

These essential programs form a vital safety net, ensuring that millions of Americans have access to healthcare and financial stability. Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid are powerful tools that reduce poverty, promote public health, and strengthen the fabric of our society.

This is positively brutal news. No one can absorb increases like this. Join forces with us to demand an alternative. www.insurance.wa.gov/about-us/new...

NEVER FORGET: SOCIAL SECURITY AND MEDICARE = OUR MONEY. THEY ARE EARNED BENEFITS, NOT AN ENTITLEMENTS, NOT HANDOUTS, IT IS OUR MONEY, EVERY LAST PENNY!

🥳 This isn't just about financial relief for parents; it's also a significant step toward improving early childhood education and supporting the child care workforce. This holistic approach strengthens the entire child care ecosystem, benefiting children, parents, and caregivers alike.

This isn't just about rising costs; it's about a broken system that prioritizes corporate profits over public health. This is a moral and economic failure. 🧵

Healthcare for all = Power to the people

We must empower patients and doctors by cutting out the profit-driven middlemen, ensuring the focus is on care, not cash.

What's your health care story? We're partnering with Physicians for a National Health Program to offer two focus groups to Oregonians this fall. We want to know about your lived experience as a patient, especially in relation to cost, access, quality of care, trust, and equity.

WA community groups seek to mobilize voters around Medicaid cuts www.cascadepbs.org/politics/202...

"As far as policy goes, you cannot come up with an idea that would have a more immediate and meaningful impact on the lives of working-class people in this state." southseattleemerald.org/news/2025/09...

The Washington Health Trust is in the House & the Senate. Affordable healthcare bills have been introduced since the 90s. It's time to pass one. This legislation would cover all Washingtonians with public health insurance. Every Washingtonian deserves comprehensive & affordable healthcare.

✅️ High costs and low value ✅️ System designed to benefit insurance companies ✅️ Lack of transparency The current healthcare system fails to serve the best interests of American taxpayers.

People over profit

Universal healthcare saves lives. And boosts the economy!

Bookmark this article! Every American deserves access to life-saving care without the added burden of battling insurance companies. Until that reality is realized, empowering yourself and others with knowledge is our greatest weapon. Read, understand, and share this vital guide to your rights.

Your value isn't measured by what you produce or how much you contribute to the economy, and access to basic needs like healthcare should never be contingent on your economic worth. Everyone deserves the chance to live a full and meaningful life, simply by virtue of being human.

For those interested in helping us have a more powerful voice in Olympia and the state Legislature, please join us Wednesday 8/27 at 10:30am to meet and discuss team formation, strategy, and plan of execution for the upcoming 2026 legislative session. RSVP: wholewashington.org/event/legisl...

Healthcare for all = Power to the people

Hi BS! A reintroduction: We're the state's largest healthcare advocacy group in WA & the only one with a universal healthcare bill in the state legislature! And if elected officials won't do their jobs, we're going to run a successful state-wide ballot initiative! We could use your help today🧵

In the wealthiest nation on Earth, life-saving care is a luxury many can't afford.

Debunking a common myth: the physician shortage is a global problem separate from universal healthcare. In fact, the for-profit healthcare system in the US is a significant cause of the shortage. 🧵

Healthcare decisions should be a matter between a patient and their doctor. For-profit insurers shouldn't have the power to deny care a doctor deems necessary, as this undermines the professional judgment of medical experts and puts corporate profits ahead of patient well-being.

The words private equity and hospital should never go together. Nor should private and care. When they exist together, the inevitable result is the prioritization of profit over people.

Great time for universal healthcare with @wholewashington.org

Health and healthcare should not be treated as a commodity or business. It's a fundamental human right.

This is a classic example of how for-profit healthcare not only prevents people from getting care but also creates a knowledge gap that makes accessing care difficult. This is a symptom of a system that prioritizes profit over patient care.

❌ healthcare for the wealth of corporations ✅ healthcare for the people

Medical debt isn't a reflection of personal failure, but rather a symptom of a systemic problem. It's a societal issue, not an individual one.

We reached a tentative agreement on a strong new contract at PeaceHealth St. Joe's in Bellingham! We held strong and took action throughout bargaining, never wavering from our values and what we need for quality care. When we stand together in our shared strength, we can do anything.

We congratulate the top-two's heading to the November election & hope to hear your support for #UniversalHealthcare. It's time to do right by the people. And if our elected officials fall down on the job, the people *will* pass #UniversalHealthcare Intrepid volunteers: join us! #bybillorbyballot

The Universal Health Care Committee had an Advocacy Roundtable Meeting with Whole Washington and our allies from the HCHR coalition. There was some really good back and forth and the UHCC was excited about our Labor win! This is us with Senator Cleveland and Representative Parshley!

Healthcare is neither a carrot nor a stick. It's fundamental.

The @onepayerstates.bsky.social learning and collaboration event is happening right now! 50 States, One Goal Here's where to register: us02web.zoom.us/meeting/regi...

As advocates on the west coast, people often suggest CA, WA, and OR could merge to create a regional healthcare system. And it's true, when the country is in a healthcare crisis, the states will need to step up. @onepayerstates.bsky.social is hosting a learning and collaboration event! 8/1 & 8/2

We are thrilled! A nearly unanimous statewide universal healthcare resolution passed at the WA State Labor Council last week. With the support of unions, we can achieve the system we all need and deserve. wholewashington.org/labor-resolu...

On Saturday @seiu.org members across the country took to the streets to say our families come first, not billionaires, not corrupt politicians, not corporate thieves. 👏🏽📣 1199NW showed up strong at actions across WA & MT alongside our communities. We choose each other & we fight in unity to win. 💜

So much of what we pay for ISN'T healthcare at all. We pay for a predatory industry that masquerades as a necessary component of our healthcare system, when, in fact, it's our barrier.

We got great press coverage from Highline College's newspaper The Thunderword. Read it here: https://thunderword.highline.edu/2025/07/24/whole-washington-wants-healthcare-for-all-washingtonians/
