The future of our health care is on the ballot this fall, and OUR votes will shape its future!
According to polls, affordable health care is a top-tier concern for people who live in our congressional district, and candidates are talking about their own ideas to address this crisis.
Join your neighbors in Putnam County and Southern Dutchess County at a non-partisan Community Forum to understand "what's at stake" in this fall's elections for the future of our health care, so that you can be an informed voter.
We'll be gathering at the Brewster Public Library on Monday evening Oct. 26 from 5:15 to 6:30 p.m. A panel of experts will provide some crucial information and analyses, and people will have a chance to ask questions.
Background:
A new law enacted last year by President Trump and his congressional allies is making dramatic and harmful changes to who has access to affordable health care and how to get it. These changes are affecting everyone, regardless of what kind of insurance you have, and the health care delivery system that we all rely on.
Our next Congress will decide whether to continue in that direction, or to take a new and different course that will make sure that everyone has access to affordable health care for ourselves, our families, and our local communities.
Host: CD-17 Community Coalition
Co-Sponsors [list in formation]:
<ul><li>Metro New York Health Care for All</li><li>Putnam Progressives</li></ul>

Please join us for an important community conversation about the future of healthcare.
Healthcare costs, quality of care, and access to care are top-of-mind concerns for families and communities across NY-17. This non-partisan community forum brings together residents, healthcare stakeholders, and community leaders to better understand the changes happening in our federal healthcare system and what they could mean for you and your family.
We’ll discuss recent legislation making significant changes to programs including Medicare, Medicaid, and the Affordable Care Act, as well as additional healthcare ideas being considered by Congress.
Most importantly, this forum is an opportunity to listen, learn, ask questions, and share perspectives. By bringing all stakeholders to the table, we hope to foster an informed and constructive conversation about community health and the future of healthcare.
Come be part of the conversation. Your voice and your questions matter.
We look forward to seeing you there!
