Healthy Shouldn’t Be This Hard

We all worry about our health, but being healthy in America has gotten harder and more expensive. Red Wine & Blue is organizing women to fight for affordable healthy food, clean air and water, real science, and accessible healthcare. Join us for trainings and events, and take action with our app and local groups.

The Struggle for Women to Live Healthy in America

As women, we deal with health challenges that our doctors don’t seem to understand. Social media is full of people telling us how to be healthy, but it’s hard to know who to trust. Girls’ Night Out conversations often turn to those sneaky perimenopause and menopause symptoms, because it’s hard to find information anywhere else.

Our grocery bills and healthcare costs are skyrocketing while giant corporations get tax breaks and put profits over our wellbeing. Many of us are caring for kids and our parents, and somehow we’re supposed to care for ourselves, too.

Politicians campaigned on promises to make America healthy, but they haven’t lived up to them. Instead, they’ve been signing executive orders to ramp up glyphosate production – a cancer-causing pesticide, while also cutting funding for cancer research. They’ve cut funding for medical research for breast cancer and ovarian cancer. They’ve loosened regulations that were keeping our air clean and water safe to drink, while also fast tracking data centers that are connected to childhood asthma. And they used misinformation to change important health and vaccine guidelines for our kids.

People like us are paying the price.

We just want it to be easier and more affordable to be healthy in America!

We’re Taking Healthy Back

Being healthy should be easy and affordable for all of our communities, regardless of where we live, how much money we make, or the color of our skin.

We want:

• Safe and healthy communities to live in and raise our kids.
• Access to real, nutritious food – and to know where it comes from.
• The removal of pesticides and other toxins from our food, air, and water.
• Real science on the vaccines that keep our kids safe.
• An understanding that neurodiversity is not something that needs to be “cured.”
• Funding for women’s and children’s health research.
• Accessible and affordable healthcare for all.

The desire to be healthy is something we all have in common, regardless of political affiliation. We welcome everyone who cares about these issues to join us in our fight to make it easier and more affordable to be healthy in America.
