Market Actor for Reform
FIGS
Medical Apparel Company · Healthcare is Human Act Co-Author
What They Did
FIGS — the medical scrubs and apparel company — stepped into the legislative arena as a co-author of the Healthcare is Human Act. The bill provides a $6,000 tax credit to make healthcare more accessible to working Americans.
On May 21, 2026, FIGS sponsored a Capitol Hill rally where nurses from around the country gathered to push for the bill's passage. A scrubs company organizing nurses at the Capitol to advocate for patient access is exactly what this category — Market Actors for Reform — is about.
The argument: companies that serve healthcare workers have standing and incentive to fix the system those workers are trapped in. FIGS used that standing.
