Memphis Chalk It UP Call to ACTION!

CHALK IT UP!

Join Health Care Advocates
AUGUST 22nd, 12:00-1:00
Madison & Danny Thomas In front of Blue Cross Blue Shield

  • Did you lose TennCare?

  • Are you Uninsured?

  • Are you Uninsurable?

  • Do you believe in Healthcare for ALL Americans?

  • Then JOIN US!

Why?

Because thousand of Tennessean's lost their TennCare, Several died, while Blue Cross Blue Shield of Tennessee has 1.4 BILLION in Reserves and Pays top Executives Million dollars bonuses plus, salaries.

Blue Cross Blue Shield has forced hundreds into institutions. Instead of helping them stay at home, while turning a profit while being a MCO for TennCare.

CHALK IT UP!

Nearly 46 million Americans are uninsured.

At least 18,000 people die each year because they don't have health insurance. It may not be a chalk outline at a crime scene, but it's just as criminal to let Americans die because of lack of health insurance. Join thousands of health care voters at coordinated rallies across the country on Tuesday, August 22.

  • Chalk it up to inaction

  • Chalk it up to misplaced priorities

  • Chalk it up to the health care crisis

  • Now is the time for our leaders to draw new conclusion.
