Fresh off the introduction of S. 1804, the Medicare for All Act of 2017, U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders will address the theme in a public speech Friday, September 22 in San Francisco, hosted by California Nurses Association/NNOC/NNU.
What: Sen. Bernie Sanders, public address
When: Friday, September 22, 1 p.m. PT
Where: Yerba Buena Gardens, Esplanade on Mission Street, between 3rd and 4th Streets, San Francisco.
The program opens at 12:30 p.m. with a special performance the John Santos Quartet, with guests Destani Wolf, Rico Pabon and Pedro Pastrana.
S 1804 has already made history with its co-sponsorship by one-third of the Senate Democratic Caucus, a direct reflection, say nurses, of the growing momentum for Medicare for all, sparked by the Sanders 2016 Presidential campaign, and a an activist mass movement, including the work of CNA/NNOC members.
“We are enormously proud of Sen. Sanders for his sponsorship of S. 1804 and want to welcome all the activists and supporters who have worked so long with Sen. Sanders and nurses’ fight in our common fight for healthcare for all and social justice,” said CNA and NNU Executive Director RoseAnn DeMoro.
