National Day of Action

5.31.2025

Call To Action May 31, 2025: Demand Health Not Profit!

We call on communities across the country to join in a National Day of Action on Saturday, May 31, 2025, to put National Single Payer Healthcare on the nation’s agenda. 

  

Our health care system is broken beyond repair. Insurance companies and for-profit middlemen create barriers to care and massive administrative waste. These result in unnecessary suffering and deaths. For over 60 years, piecemeal reforms have resulted in higher costs and the worst health outcomes among comparable nations.

We demand the recognition by our government that health care is a human right.

We demand the elimination of private health insurance and the banning of for-profit delivery of care.  

We demand the enactment of a publicly financed, national  single payer program that would provide comprehensive coverage to everyone.

We demand that health care delivery be transformed from profit-seeking ventures into services organized to serve the people of our country, a system in which all caregivers are freed from corporate control. 

 

The National Day of Action will bring people together locally and nationally from neighborhoods, unions, faith groups, businesses, and all types of civic organizations to join the demand to remove profit from health care. We must focus our collective anger towards corporate health insurers to bring real reform: put National Single Payer on the nation’s agenda!

“IMAGINE” (Tune of “Imagine” By John Lennon)

New words by Charlie King/Occupella Group San Diego. Revised by Lee for Tucson Raging Grannies 04/24/17

(Starting note = Middle C)

I-ma-gine you have healthcare. (pause)

It’s easy if you try-y,

freedom to choose your doctor, (pause)

cov’rage money can’t buy-y.

I-ma-gine first class treatme-ent when you’re unemployed

O-o-o-o-o

I-magine no insurance, (pause) no greedy middlema-an

No premium, and no co-pay, (pause) a single payer pla-an

I-ma-gine a long illness, and you don’t lose your home

(CHORUS)

You may sa-a-ay I’m a dreamer. (pause)

I’m not dreaming by myself. (pause)

I hope some-da-a-a-ay you’ll jo-in us (pause)

and the wo-o-o-orld can live in health.

Can you say “U-ni-ver-sal?” (pause)

I wonder if you ca-an.

Now try “Com-pre-hen-sive”. (pause)

Does that sound like a pla-an?

It’s worked for years in Europe, Canada & Japan

(CHORUS)

You may sa-a-ay I’m a dreamer. (pause)

I’m not dreaming by myself. (pause)

I hope some-da-a-a-ay you’ll jo-in us (pause)

NO MORE ACOs!

(Tune of “Row, Row, Row Your Boat”)

By Lee for Tucson Raging Grannies 03/10/23

(Revised 02/23/25)

(Starting note is A below middle C)

No… more… ACOs!

They’re the reason why

our health-care is in de-cline

while pro-fit’s are sky high!

For man-y dec-ades both par-ties

have ta-ken huge sums from

the corp‘rate health-care in-dus-try

to scam our whole na-tion!

All the while be-hind the scenes

the re-al-i-ty is

they’re pri-va-tiz-ing Med-i-care

to make it “Med-i-Biz

No… more… ACOs

find-ing ways to stall

pay-ing claims, when what we want

is MED-I-CARE FOR ALL!

Health-care is a hu-man right!

No one should be left out!

the an-swer’s Med-i-care for All

With it there’ll be no doubt!

Our tax mon-ey should ben-e-fit

the en-tire na-tion

not just weal-thy in-ves-tors

in big corp-o-ra-tions!

Working people are fed up

with the corp’rate lies.

They know we pay bil-lions more

’cause ours is pri-va-tized.

Medicare for All NOW!

MURDERING MEDICARE (Tune of “Bicycle Built For Two”)

By Lee for Tucson Raging Grannies 05/11/18 (Revised 10/30/21) (starting note is F)

They’re Mur-during Med-icare. But not like you would think.

It’s un-der the ta-ble by meth-ods that really stink!

They’re us-ing the same old tact-ics

that Big Box stores have prac-ticed.

by charg-ing us less

’til they have success-

fully killed their com-pet-i-tors.

Med-icare Ad-van-tage plans are do-ing the same thing SO…

(pause) Here are the facts that they don’t want you to know.

Funds for the perks they off-er

come from taxpayers’ coff-ers.

They rob Medicare to

get more than what’s fair

They are for-profit par-a-sites.

It adds to our woes that this tax-payer money goes

to line the pock-ets of Med-icare’s biggest foes!

The for-profits think it’s fun-ny

to use Medi-care’s own mon-ey

luring sen-iors a-way

’til one sad day

too late they find out they’ve been had!

Once all the health-y sen-iors have been sucked out

Med-icare will then be shut do-own without a doubt!

So con-tact each Congress-per-son

and don’t buy plans that wors-en

the fu-ture of all… (pause)

just cause they are called… (pause)

Speak very –> an Ad-van-tage…

slowly cause TRUST us… THEY’RE NOT!

MEDICARE ADVANTAGE (tune of “Hotel California”)

Protest lyrics by Lee for Tucson Raging Grannies 06/21/24

The T V ads and mail outs had made it sound so good,

with gym and den-tal cov’rage and e-ven some free food!

But they‘ve de-nied the chem-o I’ve just been found to need,

I must go back to REAL Medi-care, and do it at full speed!

But the broker said…   

         Wel-come to-o Med-i-care Ad-va-an-tage!”

         with its love-ly frills

         hiding all the bills

         that you will have to pay once you are real-ly ill.

         What a nice sur-prise
         underneath the lies.

Last thing I re-mem-ber, I was run-ning for the door.
I had to find the pass-age back to the place I was be-fore.
“Re-lax,”(pause) said the bro-ker, “We are pro-grammed to re-ceive.
You can check out an-y time you like, but you can ne-ver leave!

         Wel-come to-o Med-i-care Ad-va-an-tage!

         You can-not go back,

         once you’re on the track.

         Up-com-ing stops for pa-tients ri-ding on this train

         are “Small Net-works” and “De-ni-al of Claims“!

         Wel-come to-o Med-i-care Ad-va-an-tage!

         What a love-ly face...

         hides a HUGE dis-grace!

We’re fed up with bein’ used as a cash cow!

Mill-ion-aire investors makin’ bigger profits really festers

when we’re told life-saving treatment’s not a-llowed!

Health insurance in the U S is so bad!

Now we’re witnessing a change that’s ver-y sad.

When the man who shot the C E O is now seen as a folk hero

ya’ know some major changes must be had!

We do NOT condone murder in an-y way!

That in-cludes by claim de-ni-al and de-lay.

So, when C E Os who do it are al-lowed to pro-fit through it,

then we un-der-stand the rage folks feel to-day!

We want ev’-ry-bod-y in the U S A

tak-in’ to the streets the thir-ty first of May!

That’s the day we’ll come to-geth-er re-e-gard-less of the wea-ther

OH MEDICARE, SWEET MEDICARE! 

(Tune of “Oh Christmas Tree “)

(Original protest lyrics by Sol Abrams, Corine Willinger & Adele Rolider)

Revised by Lee for Tucson Raging Grannies 03/08/25

 

(Starting note = G below middle C)

 

Oh Med-i-care, sweet Med-i-care, your ben-e-fits we’d love to share.

All through this land you should be spread. You’re the best thing since sliced bread.

     Your o-ver-head is ver-y low. You save us all a lot of dough.

     Now It’s time to cover ev-er-y…. med-i-cal necessi-ty.

It’s clear-ly Congress-‘es disgrace that so far this is not the case.

They have been paid by prof-iteers to spread their lies for man-y years.

 

     We need to give them all the boot! We’d save our-selves a lot of loot,

     if ev‘-ry-one would take a stand for Med-i-care a-cross the land!

Advantage plans are ev‘rywhere. They’re parasites on true healthcare.

OH tradishnal Med-i-care, with all those scams are you still there?

     Our Congress lets them rob from you to subsidize the wealthy who

     own shares in these Advantage plans and profit from their dirty scams!

Advantage plans are ACOs and Medi-ca-a-res big-gest foes!  

And now they have the weirdest perks to make up for their small networks.

     A lot like guys whose cars are great ’cause they think they must compensate.

     That’s one more reason t’would be best to put more women in Congress!

                       

Don’t privatize our Medicare! Instead expand it ev’rywhere!

Improve it so it fully pays for ev’rything with no delays!

    Tell ev‘ry member of Congress we won’t a-gree to an-y less

       than Medicare for All, and it…(very slow->) must   be   free   of   all  profit!

            The on-ly thing they do for sure

            is care for their in-ve-es-tors!

A huge percent of A-me-er-i-cans

We all need to stand and de-mand

a plan that’s real-ly hea-ealth care.

We can’t keep our heads in the sand.

STOP this corp‘rate wea-ealthcare!

            Congress has to dance to our beat

THERE’S NO BUSINESS LIKE HEALTH INSURANCE

 

(To the tune of “There’s No Business Like Show Business”)

By Lee for Tucson Raging Grannies 04/11/17  (Revised 03/12/25)

 

(Starting note = D)

 

 

There’s no biz-ness like health in-sur-ance

where mon-ey comes a-bove health.

Ev‘ry-thing a-bout it is dis-gust-ing,

Ev’ry-thing our poli-tics al-low.

Even though their coff-ers are all busting

they’ll still find roooom for more some-how.

              

         There’s no biz-ness like health in-sur-ance.

          They smile when you are low

            be-cause no mat-ter what, they get your mon-ey

         And when you run out of it, well honey,

         take a look at what all of that fine print said,

            “If you can’t pay, please drop dead.”

  

There’s no biz-ness like health in-sur-ance,

the greedi-est biz-ness we know

Even though their pro-fits soar like rockets

they’ll take the last dime from your grand-ma’s pockets.

Their slimy CEOs are so un-feeling

Con-cerns for healing are just for show.

 

         For years we’ve asked them for Me--ed-i-care for All

         but our pol-i-ti-cians stall.

         Pre-oc-cu-pied with mon-ey for their ca-amp-aigns

         while we suffer with aches and pains

         Now we say it’s time we start-ed rais-in’ Cain!

         DEMAND MEDICARE FOR ALL!

The NJ Universal Health Care Coalition exists to do two things: (1) provide information and educational materials about Medicare for All to NJ residents; and (2) develop and build support for legislation at both the federal and state levels that we believe will best advance implementation of a federal single payer system.

We agree to evaluate our Statement of Purpose on an as-needed basis so that we
can adjust strategy based on our assessment of the needs of all residents, nationally and statewide, within the context of the political landscape.

Philly Neighborhood Networks

A spark of progressive activism was ignited during the 2004 Presidential campaign. A core group of MoveOn organizers realized the impact they had  using the power to influence election results in the key city in the swing state of Pennsylvania. That spark generated a local organization with an enduring commitment: Philly Neighborhood Networks that now involves over 3,400 activists.  We push for progressive candidates and policies in Philadelphia, and organize our work around Action Committees that work for Economic Justice, Education, Electoral Politics, Environment, Healthcare, and Housing. We recognize all these issues are infused with racial injustice and the systemic oppression of people of color, and each committee prioritizes anti-racism within its movement.

Rise Up WV

Rise Up West Virginia formed out of a community meeting in Charleston in early 2017. We came together out of concern for the direction of our country and a belief that politics-as-usual has failed us. We are building an independent political force, not aligned with either major party, in order to pressure politicians to fight for the common good – not an elite few.

We believe in a vision for our country where politicians fight visibly for ordinary Americans and stand up to wealthy interests to ensure that all of us have healthcare, quality public education, decent income and secure retirement. We believe in an America where racism, sexism and religious intolerance are not part of any candidate’s platform, and moral courage is the norm, not the exception. We look towards a future where American democracy functions again because wealth and power are no longer concentrated in the hands of a few.
