That is the year Matt Ready was elected to the Jefferson Healthcare Board of Commissioners.
In 2025, the chair of the board of a neighboring hospital district will say in reaction to an email from Matt Ready the day before, “In my old chicago neighborhood, he’d be swimming with the fishes.”

Let’s say it began with the quest for universal healthcare.
Matt Ready’s story as a public hospital commissioner has been recorded and documented with extraordinary detail at his privately maintained website: http://readyforhealthcare.org
