Join candlelight vigils Saturday urging rejection of GOP health plan

This Saturday, March 18 at 7 p.m., labor, faith and community groups will hold candlelight vigils in cities throughout Washington to demand that our state’s Republican members of Congress vote NO on the ACA repeal bill. Our U.S. Representatives have a responsibility to protect the health and safety of their constituents who rely on the ACA for basic care. The Republican health care proposal doesn’t just repeal the ACA — it slashes Medicaid funding and reduces access to quality care for seniors, women, and people with disabilities — just to fund billions in tax breaks for the rich. Read more.
