Over 320 Organizations Urge Biden-Harris Transition Team to Prioritize Health and Health Care

On December 10, 2020, Families USA led over 320 national, state, and community organizations in this letter to the Biden-Harris Transition Team urging the incoming administration to prioritize health and health care immediately upon taking office and outlining key priorities. This letter reflects an extraordinarily broad group of stakeholders bringing together organizations representing consumers, providers, labor, insurance plans, philanthropy, civil rights issues, the faith community, LGBTQ+ communities, public health, health equity, state and county officials, and social service providers. These organizations represent nearly all 50 states and Washington, DC.

As the incoming administration sets its agenda for the first 100 days, and the next four years, it is imperative that it prioritizes health and health care. Our organizations know that these policies are key to turning the tide of the pandemic, restoring our economy, and saving lives and that there is an opportunity to set the course for the health and well-being of every family in America for decades to come.
