Virtual Rural Rally for the MinnesotaCare Public Option is April 29

April 29, 2023 @ 10:00 am - 11:30 am

Rural Organizing Project of ISAIAH MN, Unidos MN, Land Stewardship Project, Minnesota Farmer’s Union and SEIU HealthCare are hosting a Virtual Rural Rally for the MinnesotaCare Public Option from 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. April 29.

Register here for the Rural Rally for the MinnesotaCare Public Option.

Regardless of where you live or what you look like, everyone deserves high quality, affordable health care.  Too many rural Minnesotans are uninsured or underinsured.  Farmers, small business owners, homecare workers, Minnesotans who are undocumented, and more, are facing financial ruin, risking and losing their lives because they can’t access good health insurance.  Rural hospitals are dealing with the huge burden of uncompensated care as they care for rural Minnesotans who can’t pay their bills.  A MinnesotaCare Public Option addresses this by giving undocumented Minnesotans access to MinnesotaCare, and by allowing those on the private market to buy in to MinnesotaCare, a high quality insurance product. Passing this bill will be particularly important for rural communities across the state.
