Parasite: Film Discussion

Posted on Events by Powen Shiah · January 31, 2021 1:27 PM · 8 reactions

co-sponsored by the Asian American and Pacific Islander Caucus and the Progressive Caucus

"A masterpiece"

"Wickedly funny"

"Roaringly furious"

"Thrilling, mischievous, dazzling"

Join discussion about the film Parasite, co-sponsored by the AAPI and Progressive Caucuses. We'll watch some short clips from the movie and discuss the film.

This South Korean black comedy thriller film directed by Bong Joon-Ho is considered by many critics to be the best film of 2019. It was hugely successful and received numerous accolades. Not only was it the first South Korean film to win the Palm d’Or award at Cannes but was also the first foreign language film to win the Academy Award for Best Picture.

Spoiler Alert*: We recommend you to watch the film before joining the discussion.

Parasite is available to stream on Hulu and Amazon Prime Video.

Send your Healthcare Photo to Members of Congress

Posted on Medicare for All by Karen Frankenstein · January 23, 2019 3:49 AM · 1 reaction

Add your photo to the DA healthcare stories booklet that will be shared with Members of Congress after the new year.

Act quickly to be added to the booklet before printing.

Photos could be of yourself, family or health-related, like a health receipt, medical equipment or prescription.  You can even use the "I Heart Universal Healthcare" sign in a selfie picture at this link. 

Even better, write a short description of why you love healthcare where you live and take a photo of you with your story, or maybe just your story if you like.  

Your story of affordable, quality, accessible healthcare overseas will help Members of Congress understand what is possible in other countries – and what is possible for all Americans.

Send your photo by email to Kent.

 


Medicare for All - new

Posted on Global Progressive Caucus by Karen Frankenstein · January 23, 2019 3:45 AM
See below how you can participate in our campaign to support the improved Medicare4All bill in the House of Representatives.
  • 2019 is the year for Medicare For All! Write a letter back to your US papers!
    It’s time for Medicare For All. We have won the House and the Medicare for All H.R.676 is being revised and needs your help to get it out of committee and introduced before Congress.

  • Tips for Medicare-for-All Letters to the Editor
    While facts are crucial, sometimes personal stories can carry much more weight with skeptical readers. This is why we launched the Democrats Abroad Healthcare Stories in support of Medicare-for-All and now invite all members to share a story directly with Americans back home.

  • Take action to save Medicare For All - before mid-February 2019
    Thanks to everyone who took action!

  • Send your Healthcare Photo to Members of Congress
    Add your photo to the DA healthcare stories booklet that will be shared with Members of Congress after the new year.

2019 is the year for Medicare For All!

Posted on Medicare for All by Karen Frankenstein · January 23, 2019 3:44 AM · 1 reaction

Write a letter back to your US papers!

It’s time for Medicare For All. We have won the House and the Medicare for All H.R.676 is being revised and needs your help to get it out of committee and introduced before Congress.

The momentum behind Medicare For All has been bubbling for decades, and if we turn up the heat, it will boil over. It is a moral imperative, and it will save us - trillions.

We, as Democrats Abroad, have experienced first-hand the benefits of a universal, public, single-payer system truly works. This was the reason we launched Healthcare Stories - and will soon be sharing these stories members of Congress.

The Progressive Caucus of Democrats Abroad is now asking for you to contribute to the next phase of how we can amplify our voices to combat the disinformation against Medicare For All being pushed by lobbyists and greedy moneyed interests who can see that momentum is growing for change.

Would you be willing to write a letter back to your local newspapers in the states  expressing your personal experience as an American abroad who has lived with Medicare for All?

We are joining the national campaign by National Nurses United that has “ a special focus on 15 target House Districts across the country represented by Democrats who are on key committees for getting the bill to the floor who have not yet co-sponsored. Those are: AL-7, CA-12, CA-29, CA-39, CA-52, CT-1, MA-1, MA-4, NJ-6, NJ-9, NM-3, OR-5, TX-35, WA-1, and WI-3. However, we also know we need to build power in every district in the country.”

You can write your letter to as many local papers you have a connection to, such as where you vote, grew up, went to school, visit relatives, vacation or do business.  And in each letter we send, we can get the attention of House members by naming them in the letter and either encouraging them to support Medicare For All or recognizing that they rightly support the Bill.

If you write a letter, you will be enlightening many other Americans who have not experienced such a system, whose minds may be swayed by the intentional spin cast by those who do not have the best interests of all Americans at heart. And encourage them to call their House Representative to demand that they support Medicare For All.

Your voice matters just as much as any “expert” on healthcare. You have lived experience of how a public system helps you.

We have made some tips and facts to help you get started.

Please also register here if you are interested, we will be in touch.

Questions? Email the Healthcare Working Group!

2019 will be an enormous fight for Medicare For All. Because it has a chance to win, it will be fought.

Let’s help spread the truth and help make Medicare For All a reality in the United States.
