I know what I'm needin', and I don't want to waste more time

Hey, New Yorkers (City and State)! Want health care? There's a bill making its way through our state legislature that would set up a state-wide single-payer health care system! It's called the New York Health Act, and it's already been passed by the Democratic-majority State Assembly. Next step is to push it through the Republican-controlled State Senate, so backers of the bill have scheduled a call-in day for Friday, January 27th, 9AM-9PM. Look up your State Senator's phone number, call 'em up, and ask them to pass it.

This isn't the first time this bill has been tried. Assemblyman Richard Gottfried has been pushing it since 1999, but it got through the Assembly for the first time in 2015. Maybe this year it'll get through both houses. And if not, we can try again next year.
