Healthcare Is on the Ballot

St. John’s Community Health Supports YES on Measure ER

St. John’s Community Health supports YES on Measure ER because healthcare access and healthcare affordability go hand in hand.

Measure ER will help protect access to community clinics, emergency rooms, hospitals, mental health services, school health programs, and care for uninsured and underinsured residents across Los Angeles County.

When healthcare resources are cut, families face longer waits, delayed care, overcrowded emergency rooms, and fewer places to turn. Measure ER gives Los Angeles County a temporary local tool to help protect the care our communities rely on.

Why Measure ER Matters

Healthcare is already too expensive for too many families. Rent, groceries, gas, and basic costs keep rising, and federal and state healthcare cuts are putting even more pressure on the system.

Measure ER helps protect healthcare access by supporting:

  • Community clinics

  • Emergency rooms and hospitals

  • Mental health services

  • School health programs

  • Preventive care

  • Care for uninsured and underinsured residents

  • Safety-net services for low-income families

A YES vote on Measure ER helps protect care for children, seniors, workers, immigrants, people with disabilities, and families across Los Angeles County.

Measure ER Is Temporary and Accountable

Measure ER is a temporary half-penny sales tax.

It is limited to five years.

It includes a citizen oversight committee.

It includes independent audits.

It was placed on the ballot by the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors, with 4 out of 5 Supervisors voting to give voters the choice.

Measure ER provides temporary local resources to help protect healthcare access while Los Angeles County faces uncertainty from Washington and Sacramento.
