\\nThe Kane County Democratic Women are excited to share o ur upcoming healthcare panel discussion\, “What the Health?” on Sat. Oct. 21st at the Batavia Public Library 10:00 AM -12:00 Noo n.
\nWe will examine how COVID exposed existing inequities in the US healthcare system\, revealing the ongoing need to improve and refo rm healthcare access in order to achieve health equity\, including the Soc ial Determinants of Health and the intersection of current social issues\, such as Addiction\, Aging\, Climate Justice\, Debt\, Disability Rights\, Domestic Violence\, Gun Violence\, Jobs\, Immigration\, Housing\, Inflatio n\, LGBTQ+ Rights\, Mental Health\, Poverty\, Racism\, and Reproductive Ri ghts\, as they relate to healthcare disparity.
\nThis is a great opp
ortunity to ask an expert panel questions like:
\nHow can we improve
access to healthcare by eliminating barriers for patients\, and healthcare
providers?
Why is our US healthcare system so complicated and dys functional for families\, and society as a whole?
\nWho is affected the most by current inequities in healthcare?
\nWhen did healthcare become so expensive in the US?

Invite friends who may show interest in supporting this board.\nI am writing to seek your help and support for our County Board. There is an active group of people attending the county monthly board meetings who are agitators and disrupters and are preventin g the board from doing the governing of the county. These groups like\, M oms for liberty\, Three headed Eagle\, Warriors among others want to keep government small and not spend money on any services EVER. They were succ essful in making enough noise to keep the board from voting for a badly ne eded tax levy for county services. They are winning the battle by just sho wing up! The county will run out of reserves in two years and will struggl e to maintain the services we have come to expect in our beautiful communi ty.\nThere are new concerns and issues that need addressing but this group of people are at every meeting to make sure not one dime is spent. There has not been any opposing perspectives from the public and the board is i nclined to listen to the loudest voices. We would like to build a bench of volunteers to help support our county board members. What do we need fr om you?\nIf you or someone you know could:\n\nAttend meetings to be presen t and show support\nMake signs and hold them up during the meetings around various issues\nSign up and speak during public comments\nWrite letters t o the board in support of various initiatives\nPost on Social Media/ Nextd oor App\n\nThe board and various subcommittees meet 4 or 5 times a month.

\nI am writing to seek your help and support for our County Board. There is an active group of people attending the county monthly board me etings who are agitators and disrupters and are preventing the board from doing the governing of the county. These groups like\, Moms for liberty\, Three headed Eagle\, Warriors among others want to keep government small and not spend money on any services EVER. They were successful in making enough noise to keep the board from voting for a badly needed tax levy for county services. They are winning the battle by just showing up! The coun ty will run out of reserves in two years and will struggle to maintain the services we have come to expect in our beautiful community.
\nThere are new concerns and issues that need addressing but this group of people are at every meeting to make sure not one dime is spent. There has not b een any opposing perspectives from the public and the board is inclined to listen to the loudest voices. We would like to build a bench of volunte ers to help support our county board members. What do we need from you?
\nIf you or someone you know could:
\nThe b oard and various subcommittees meet 4 or 5 times a month. The meetings are during the mornings/day so it requires individuals who have weekday flexi bility.
