On May 19, Orange County and Bakersfield residents and members of the We Are California movement will begin a five-day fast to continue to demand that Congress and billionaires keep their “hands off our healthcare!” Congress is threatening to cut funding for critical life-saving programs to health care, food assistance, education and more to fund tax breaks and handouts to the wealthiest. The week of action will call attention to how Congressional budget proposals will devastate and starve our communities of vital healthcare, food assistance and other resources that children, seniors and working families rely on and urges representatives to protect California families and children.
WILL YOU JOIN THE SOLIDARITY FAST?
We’re in this together. No matter where in CA you live, you can join this effort. We’re asking supporters to join in a solidarity fast on Wednesday, May 21st. We’re speaking out because our lives are in danger - Congress is trying to starve our people. Young Kim, Ken Calvert and others are slashing Medicaid, food assistance, and essential services that millions of families—like mine—depend on to survive.
Once you register, you'll recieve a toolkit over email with instructions on how to prepare and participate in the solidarity fast.
