Hospitals Meet with Candidates for Open East Bay Seats 

Who

  • Alameda and Contra Costa county hospital and government relations leaders  
  • Candidates for the open District 5 supervisor seats  
  • Candidate for the open 12th Congressional District seat

What

Hospital Council convened meetings with hospital government relations leaders and candidates for the open seats on the Alameda and Contra Costa county boards of supervisors. A meeting also took place with the leading candidate in the 12th Congressional District race to replace Congresswoman Barbara Lee.  

These introductory meetings were intended to build relationships early, help hospitals understand the candidates’ interest and knowledge of hospital and health care issues, and educate them on hospitals’ top priorities.

Takeaway/Next Steps

We had engaging and thoughtful conversations with all the candidates we met. The candidates were invited to visit hospitals and reach out to Hospital Council as a resource.
