“Now Is the Time: Healthcare for Everybody” delves into the problems of U.S. healthcare, what single payer health care is, and how it will save us money. The U.S. pays nearly twice as much for healthcare as any other industrialized nation, yet it still does not provide care for all of its citizens. While the Affordable Care Act (ACA) has helped some, many of us are feeling the pinch of rising costs and narrowing networks. Polls show that 58% of Americans favor a national publicly-funded healthcare program. The post-film discussion will help us understand what we can do to catalyze healthcare for everybody.

Special Guests: Whole Washington will provide a speaker to introduce what is being done in Washington to promote a single payer system.
