Let's Build a Health System
for Our Time.
Our Mission
A Democratic Socialist Vision for Healthcare in New York
We, the members of the DSA-NYC Healthcare working group, are building a mass movement to transform the New York Healthcare System to one that puts workers and patients first. We are building to pass the NY Health Act, the nation's first single-payer system, rebuilding and deprivatizing public hospitals, empowering workers, and putting patients over profits. Healthcare is not a commodity. It is a public good. It is a human right.
No upcoming events scheduled. Check back soon!

Healthcare Working Group Newsletter
Do Not Resuscitate
A weekly, annotated digest of news from mainstream and specialty media that breaks down all the ways in which the lack of a single-payer system produces a wasteful flood of cash that lines the pockets of health insurance executives and shareholders instead of making people healthier.
Get Involved
The movement needs you.
Whether you're a healthcare worker, a patient who's been wronged by the system, a union member, or someone who believes healthcare is a human right — there's a place for you here. We meet monthly, organize year-round, and fight to win.
