We gained six new Legislative Districts with at least one legislator supporting single payer healthcare reform in the 2018 General Election!
Welcome to our new Legislative Districts! LDs 10, 30 41, 42, 43, and 47 now have a health care champion advocating for you. With a net gain of five legislative districts, Washington state has single payer healthcare reform support in 25 of 49 LDs.
Washingtonians elected seven new health care champions and retained 24 incumbent health care champions!
If your legislator is a Health Care Champion, please email, call, write them or talk to them in person:
1. Thank their legislator for being a Health Care Champion
2. Tell your legislator why single payer, universal health care is important to you
3. Ask them to support the single-payer legislation once the bills are drafted and dropped
Thank you!
