Banner - People's Town Hall Speakout

Tuesday, July 11, 6:30-8pm
Ohio Statehouse
This past Thursday, July 6th, hundreds of people across the US participated in sit-ins at senators' offices to stand up against Trumpcare. Columbus activists joined in the national action by sitting in at Portman's local office with these demands:
1) That Senator Portman host a public town hall to discuss the healthcare bill with his constituents.
2) That he make a clear commitment to vote against the Better Care Reconciliation Act recently introduced in the United States Senate - legislation which would strip millions of people of lifesaving healthcare.

Join Socialist Alternative Columbus and Junto Remains Unsilenced to call on Senator Portman to discuss the Senate healthcare bill with constituents on Tuesday, July 11th at 6:30pm at the Ohio Statehouse. 

With or without him, we will speak out and make our voices heard. If passed, Trumpcare would deny tens of millions access to healthcare and represent one of the greatest transfers of wealth from the working class to the 1% in U.S. history through massive tax cuts for the super-rich and corporations. 469,600 Ohioans would lose healthcare coverage by 2026 under Trumpcare. There is an imminent threat of a vote on Trumpcare this coming week as Congress goes back into session. We need to send a bold message calling on Portman to oppose any version Trumpcare and demand improved Medicare for All for all Ohioans!
