"A lot of people are going to lose their lives. There’s no other way to say this.” 💔

When healthcare funding gets slashed, healthcare workers are left with impossible choices. Real lives are on the line, and patients who are already struggling are being forced to go without the critical care they need.

We can’t leave our healthcare workers and vulnerable patients to fight this alone.

🗳️ Vote YES on Prop 40 to protect vital healthcare funding, support our frontline staff, and ensure everyone gets the care they deserve.

For Jasmin it's two things at once. If she's laid off, she can't cover her mortgage, bills, or her own health care. And her community loses care, in a place where getting to an appointment already means a hard drive.
Dignity Health has already laid off 139 workers in California this year and closed its family medicine clinic in Tehachapi. Its parent company CommonSpirit Health says nothing is off the table.
Prop 40 is a one-time 5% tax on the wealth of California's billionaires, with 90% of it going to health care. Props 41 and 42 would cancel it out.
. No on 41 and 42.

We’re all paying more for healthcare. Meanwhile, billionaires got tax breaks in the same bill that gutted our healthcare funds.

When people can't afford coverage, they put off care until it becomes an emergency, and hospitals are already reporting more unpaid bills.

Every one of us in healthcare is feeling that squeeze. Prop 40 is a one-time 5% tax on the wealth of California's billionaires, with 90% of it going to health care.

Props 41 and 42 would cancel it. Yes on 40. No on 41 and 42.

The Ballots over Billionaires event in Los Angeles was a success! We stood with Senator Bernie Sanders, Rep. Ro Khanna, and Jane Kim to say it plainly: billionaires can pay a one-time 5% tax so Californians can keep their healthcare. Vote yes on Prop 40.

Vee floats between departments, so she sees which clinics are short-staffed and how long patients wait as a result. The delays are already here from understaffing. More layoffs only deepen them.

Last night, we packed the Curran in San Francisco to say yes to Prop 40!

Trump’s “Big, Ugly Bill” slashed funding for healthcare in California to pay for more billionaire tax breaks. Billionaires already pay much lower tax rates than what working families pay out of every paycheck. They insist on paying less and sticking the middle class with the bill.

Prop 40 will make billionaires start to pay their fair share in taxes to keep local hospitals and ERs open and healthcare affordable for millions of Californians.

Next stop: Los Angeles!

Seham and her husband both work full-time and study at night, building something for their two kids. Cuts to their benefits and annual raises have already left them financially insecure. At work, she sees patients who can't afford their medication, and she carries the stress home to her family.

Sergey Brin's fortune grew by more than $100 billion in under two years. He's spent over $100 million of it trying to kill Prop 40, the Billionaire Tax.

But there are millions more of us, and on Election Day, our votes count the same. It’s not the tax that scares them, it’s our democratic power.

Yes on 40. No on 41 and 42.
