Come learn about the New York Health Act, a bill to de-privatize healthcare and send the extortionist insurance companies packing. No more premiums, deductibles, and co pays! No denials of care or medication and no restricted networks!

Please read this short explainer of the New York Health Act before the session

Please watch this fun video featuring Zohran Mamdani and Jabari Brisport explaining why the New York Health Act has not passed.

By the end of this session, you will be able to speak with your family, coworkers, union or fellow DSA branch members about why now is the time to pass the New York Health Act.

The purpose of this strategy session is to finalize a NYC DSA Citywide Priority Campaign proposal to win the New York Health Act in 2027, to bring to your comrades, branches and the next DSA convention in Nov 2026.

We will start with a power-mapping exercise, agreeing on short/medium/long term goals then break out into field, communications, research/education, electoral, labor subgroups.

Please familiarize yourself with the New York Health Act by reading resources from Physicians for a National Health Program, attending our next NYHA 101 or reaching out to the OC or fellow members of our working group for a 1:1 (join our WhatsApp community if you haven't already).

This strategy session will not be a space to debate the finer points of the bill, but rather to plan how our ascendant socialist organization will win this transformative health and labor legislation that will materially affect every person in New York, and be the first domino to fall for an Improved Medicare for All.
