Bernie Sanders & Other Senators Introduce Medicare for All Act

Washington, DC...Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and 16 of his Democratic colleagues introduced legislation Wednesday to guarantee health care to every American by expanding and improving Medicare. “Today, we begin the long and difficult struggle to end the international embarrassment of the United States being the only major country on earth not to guarantee health care to all its people,” Sanders said. “At a time when millions of Americans do not have access to affordable health care, the Republicans, funded by the Koch brothers, are trying to take away health care from up to 32 million more. We have a better idea: guarantee health care to all people as a right, not a privilege, through a Medicare for All, single-payer health care program.”

More than that, I’ve been thinking about how critical it is to the economic well-being of Calaveras County that we attract and keep business institutions that provide our rural communities with the services and the jobs we need.
