The Healthcare Working Group held a fundraiser at Full City Rooster Coffee. A silent auction was held featuring art, jewelry, music, and other items which had been donated by both DSA North Texas members as well as other creators. A representative from the coalition of Medicare for All advocates our healthcare group has assembled, Kamyon Conner of Texas Equal Access Fund, was on hand to say a few words. There was plenty of camaraderie, coffee beverages, live music, and bidding. Funds raised from the auction as well as the new Medicare for All t-shirt orders will go towards the Fall flu shot clinic, printing materials for canvassing, and more events to build the movement for health justice in North Texas.
