BINKI Virtual Meeting June 1st: Health Care for All – WA

June 1, 2020 @ 5:00 pm - 6:30 pm

Join Zoom June 1st BINKI Meeting
https://us02web.zoom.us/j/848379479

Join BINKI and Heath Care for All (HCFA-WA) policy team to learn about the significance of bills that passed and those that did not pass in the 2019 WA legislature. Then learn about what the policy team is planning for next session. We will end with a QnA so bring your questions.

The mission of HCFA-WA is to achieve high quality, sustainable, affordable, publicly financed, and publicly and privately delivered health care for all Washington residents.

Recent Affairs HCFA-WA
We have been effective. HCFA-WA was instrumental in recent years through the development of legislation, including promoting and lobbying for passage of the Pathway to Universal Health Care Bill, as well as the Cascade Care Bill, in 2019. This year, HCFA-WA focused on pharmaceutical measures passed in other states before creating our own proposal package to contain costs of prescription drugs and address the extreme and exploitative cost of insulin. The three bills we incubated passed with nearly unanimous support, as did three additional health reform bills we pushed. With the able assistance of our contract lobbyist, we renewed existing relationships with key legislators and reached out across the aisles of both legislative chambers to form a strong, bi-partisan foundation of support for continuing health care reforms.
