Hundreds of activists from around the country convened for an online week of inspiration and strategy to win Medicare for All! The 2022 M4A conference featured more than 20 plenary panels, 40 live workshops, and 80 speakers.
What can a municipal resolutions campaign do to build a robust local movement for Medicare for All in your part of the country? In this workshop, we will learn about the exciting coalition effort to pass local resolutions in blue, red, and purple districts from coast to coast and share tools and ideas. This session will feature organizers from Medicare for All Connecticut who built a broad and diverse coalition of activist and community organizations that led to a unanimous victory in New Haven, CT. We will address key challenges in building local coalitions and present a set of tools that a small team of activists can use to bring an impressive list of new allies into the fight for Medicare for All.
