Friend,

What you may not know is just how special of a place health care holds in our hearts here at the Fairness Project. As a matter of fact, it’s how I — and Fairness Project — both got our start.

Long before joining the Fairness Project team, I got my start on Capitol Hill. I worked with a number of influential changemakers, but under Rep. Allyson Schwartz I had the unforgettable opportunity to work with a team of colleagues to draft and pass the Affordable Care Act. To this day, I still consider this to be one of the most foundational experiences of my career.

Fast forward to 2017 — Fairness Project had just won its first slate of campaigns ever in the 2016 election cycle. Up until then, our team had really only focused on campaigns to raise wages, but this year… we decided to grow our mission to support another cause that badly needed our help: health care access.

In 2017, we partnered with workers in Maine to win the first ever ballot measure campaign to successfully expand Medicaid access. It was in that moment, we knew: we could really do this.

Since then we’ve taken our fight to several states — all red and purple — and regardless of where voters fell on the political spectrum, friend, we won. We won because when it comes to kitchen table issues that affect everyone , time and again, voters will choose progress.

This work helped us crack the code and power progress in other states across the country. It’s helped us expand health care access to over 875,000 Americans and change the lives of 18 million people.

This year, we’re continuing the charge in South Dakota, where Medicaid expansion is on the ballot. So today, as we celebrate Medicaid’s 57th birthday, we focus on the work there still is do to — in South Dakota and across the country.

This work will only be possible with your support, friend. If you’re with us in the fight to expand access to life-saving health care, please consider donating to power our work today. I’ve included my personal donate link below, and I hope to see your contribution come through tonight.
