In accordance with the Bylaws, the SBPEA Annual Membership Meeting
is held on the third Tuesday of September of each year at 7:30 p.m. at the SBPEA office, 433
N. Sierra Way, San Bernardino, CA 92410.
It is time we take a stand and begin the fight
for:
Quality, affordable health care that allows all Californians to get
the health care they need when they need it.
Insurance reforms to control costs and allow everyone access to quality
healthcare and coverage.
Employers and government sharing responsibility and risk with consumers.
Limits on the risk and burdens placed on individual consumers and
families, and protecting them from being forced to buy coverage they cannot
afford and that does not cover their healthcare needs.
Prevention and safety efforts to help individuals get healthy and stay
healthy, by providing healthy communities and choices, while not placing
financial barriers to care.
Policies to preserve and strengthen our public hospitals, emergency rooms
and trauma centers that all Californians rely on.
Efforts to control costs, while protecting benefits and preventing
increased financial barriers to care.
SBPEA has joined a coalition with every important labor organization in
the state -
BECAUSE everyone should get the health care they need when they need
it...
BECAUSE our lives and livelihoods, and those of our children and
families, depend on it...
BECAUSE sickness and injury are difficult and frightening enough
without having to worry about not getting the care we need or about
facing medical debt or bankruptcy...
BECAUSE it's our health care...and it should be our choice!
