 Single Payer Committee

The Single Payer Committee carries on all of NYPAN’s work to #PassNYHealth and has members from around the state. It meets monthly on the second Monday of every month. We’re skipping August, so the next meeting is on September 12th at 7:00pm, and all are welcome! RSVP here

We now have SIX working groups! More at NYHA@nypan.org

Labor Working Group - Contact Jeff Mikkelson, jeff@nypan.org. Labor is developing strategies and outreach materials to amplify existing support for and overcome lingering opposition to the NY Health Act among labor unions, focusing on the large public sector unions that wield significant influence over Democratic leadership and the legislative process.

Electoral Working Group - Contact Ting Barrow, tingb@nypan.org. Electoral has begun the process of power mapping every one of our state senators, and is bent on finding the levers that will move them to #PassNYHealth as well as a strategy to use those levers with other organizations during the next session.

People2People Working Group - Contact Erl Kimmich, erlendkimmich@gmail.com or 646-596-0228. People2People is focused on outreach from person to person, because we will need people power to pressure leaders to improve the mess that is our current health care system.

Research Working Group - Research continues to look for information to assist Electoral with power mapping our senators, to create county tax savings numbers, and to help create forceful flyers.  We are looking for a new lead person! I you’re interested, please email NYHA@nypan.org.

Medical Professionals Working Group - Contact Donald Gardner, donald@gardnerproject.com. This working group is building support among medical professionals, physicians, non-physicians, nurses, PAs, etc., as well as office/business/practice managers in all medical and clinical environments. Through our reach to these providers, and their outreach to their colleagues, we can share the information about the NYHA and/or correct any mis-information.

TikTok Working Group - OUR LATEST! - Long overdue, but very welcome, as this is a great way to reach out to younger folks in particular. Want to join? Have videos that we can use? Contact Abby Gavin, Abby@nypan.org for more!
