Laura Packard

She is the founder of Health Care Voices,[2] a non-profit grassroots organization for adults with serious medical conditions.

She is executive director of the group Health Care Voter,[3] with actress Alyssa Milano, singer T-Boz, politicians Donna Edwards and Anton Gunn, activists Ady Barkan and Brad Woodhouse, and others as co-chairs.

[4] Packard is also executive director of Get America Covered, a group that promotes increased health coverage.

Her sharp questioning led United States Senator Dean Heller to eject her from a public event,[13] and her criticism of President Donald Trump resulted in him blocking her on Twitter.

[15] Packard spoke on five national bus tours with progressive health care advocacy organization Protect Our Care in 2018,[16] 2019,[17] 2021,[18] 2022,[19] and 2023,[20] and a national bus tour with advocacy organization Courage for America on the debt ceiling crisis in 2023.
