ONA is conducting a letter writing campaign to draw attention to the hospital closure.

Folks of #Eugene and @eugene: Our only hospital on this side of the river is closing. The ER's last day is set to be Dec. 1. The Oregon Nurses Association has started this letter writing campaign to hopefully draw the attention of the OHA and Governor.

Please consider sending, even if just the pre-prepared form letter. https://actionnetwork.org/letters/save-eugenes-hospital

@bamfic I would argue instead that it really doesn't matter what people do. The decision to close the hospital has already been made and probably won't be reversed. Starting from the assumption that no action will do anything for this, why should it matter what people do regarding this, as long as it's not hurting anyone?

(Okay I'll get off my soapbox now lol)
