Wine & Write
Wine & Write is a new monthly gathering for neighbors who believe democracy shouldn’t end when a public meeting does. Bring a friend and connect with neighbors, catch up on local issues, and write meaningful, handwritten letters to our local decision-makers. Bring your laptop, tablet, or phone if it helps you research or organize your thoughts, but we’ll put pen to paper and create something our elected officials have to physically receive, open, and read.
Whether you’re writing your first letter or you’re a seasoned advocate, Wine & Write is a place to build confidence, strengthen your voice, and turn frustration into action.
One letter won’t change a city. But hundreds of letters, written by neighbors who keep showing up, just might.

Corporate Controlled Health Insurance Deceptive Practices
4th of a series for Universal Healthcare for Colorado NOW
Rachel Madley, Executive Director for Center for Health and Democracy and the hosts of Universal Healthcare for Colorado NOW, Jeanne Nicholson and Virginia Gebhart.
We discuss some of the many ways that health insurance corporations put profits over people, using claim denial as a first response to payment claims, creating multiple barriers and fine print loopholes to allow corporate non-accountability, and preying on the mortally ill patients.
