Health Care for All-Washington
Our mission: universal health care
The mission of Health Care for All-WA is to achieve high quality, sustainable, affordable, publicly financed, and publicly and privately delivered health care for all Washington residents.
What do we mean by universal health care?
Coverage designed and administered by the state
Care delivered by private and public providers, clinics, and hospitals
Financed through a unified system
From cradle to grave, all Washingtonians covered by state, federal, or tribal programs
How do we get there?
Through legislative advocacy.
We are effective.
- 2022: The legislature passed eight of our top priority bills into law, including controlling the price of prescription drugs and increasing access to health care.
- 2021: We helped lay the groundwork for the Universal Health Care Commission. Governor Inslee appointed five of our six recommendations to the 15-member Commission.
-
2020: We successfully passed health care cost legislation into law, from reducing the costs of insulin to requiring greater transparency in health care costs.
- 2019: We were instrumental in the passage of the Pathway to Universal Health Care Bill and the Cascade Care Bill.
