Subject Lansing Voters Are Asking for a Seat at the Table on Healthcare

Healthcare decisions that affect our families are made every day in Lansing, and most of us find out about them after the fact — if we find out at all. That's why what happened here in Lansing on July 14th matters. More than 7,300 residents signed their names to put a healthcare advisory measure on the November ballot. That's nearly 3,000 signatures more than required. That's not a fringe group — that's our neighbors saying loudly that they want a voice in how healthcare works in this city and this state.

The measure would create a Citizens' Advisory Healthcare Action Committee to develop a Healthcare Act every two years — a real, community-grounded plan for what residents actually need. Not a plan written behind closed doors. Not a plan handed down from the top. One built from the ground up, by people who use the healthcare system, not just the people who run it. That kind of accountability is something I'd hope you'd want too.

I'm asking you to publicly support this ballot measure moving forward and to champion the idea that Lansing residents deserve a formal role in shaping the healthcare decisions that affect their lives.

Hi, my name is [NAME] and I'm a constituent from Lansing. I'm calling to talk about the healthcare ballot measure that just cleared the signature threshold — over 7,300 signatures were submitted to the city clerk today.
This proposal would create a Citizens' Advisory Healthcare Action Committee to put together a real healthcare plan every two years, based on what Lansing families actually need. That kind of community input doesn't exist right now, and it should.
I'd like to know whether [REP NAME] will publicly support this measure moving forward. Thousands of Lansing residents are paying attention to this, and we want to know our representative is with us.
Healthcare affects every single person in this district. I'd love to hear back on where the representative stands. I vote in every election, and this issue matters to me.
