A Historic Campaign

Healthcare Rising members led the coalition effort to collect signatures to get Prop 139 on the ballot, collecting more than 70,000 signatures. Healthcare Rising also contributed petitioners, notaries, training, and more to secure a record-breaking 823,685 signatures overall. That’s the most signatures collected in Arizona history, since Healthcare Rising last collected signatures to fight medical debt in 2022!

After Prop 139 qualified for the ballot, we talked to our neighbors, we talked to our friends, we talked to our family, we talked to the media. We mobilized people who had never been involved in something like this before by connecting with them, person to person, as human beings — and we won!
