Health Care Lobby Day on the Hill 2026 is sponsored by PNHP-MN and Health Care for All Minnesota (HCA-MN). All meeting arrangements and training will be provided to anyone who registers!
Meetings with legislators will be scheduled on your behalf. We will provide handouts to leave with the legislator, so all YOU have to do is ask them to support legislation that aligns with our fight for a single payer healthcare system for Minnesotans.
Bills supported on Lobby Day include the Patient-Centered Care (previously HF 255). This bill reflects our priorities as we build toward the MN Health Plan.
New and experienced citizen lobbyists are welcome!
| July 8, 2025 Dear health justice advocate, They did it. Last week, Republicans in Congress passed a budget that cuts health care for millions of Americans and will harm many more as hospitals and clinics close their doors—all to line the pockets of billionaires and corporations. The callousness and inhumanity expressed in this budget are antithetical to everything we stand for and are deeply unpopular with the American people. President Trump is pushing hard against the limits of his power, and it is crucial that we organize the countless Americans that will be harmed by these policies in order to push back.We must continue to expose the widespread and devastating human toll of this Republican budget: Tens of thousands of Americans will die. PNHP experts estimate as many as 12,626 preventable deaths annually from Medicaid cuts alone, and researchers at the Yale School of Public Health project as many as 51,000 preventable deaths annually from the overall cuts in the bill.For a detailed list of health care provisions in the recently passed budget, see this comprehensive tracker from the Kaiser Family Foundation. In addition to educating ourselves on policy, our members will play a crucial role in organizing the fight to reverse course. In the coming weeks and months, we must: -Minimize harm to our patients, whenever possible -Share stories of needless suffering caused by health care cuts -Build alliances with local and national groups fighting for health justice -Champion the Medicare for All system we all need and deserve Now is the time to fight for the transformative reform our country needs. Millions depend on our determination to ensure health justice. Thank you for being a vital part of this life-saving movement, |
