Sen. Elizabeth Warren Issues Support for Single-Payer Healthcare System

HeadlineJun 28, 2017

On the Democratic Party side, Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren has become the latest politician to back a single-payer healthcare system. In an interview with The Wall Street Journal Tuesday, she said, “President Obama tried to move us forward with health-care coverage by using a conservative model that came from one of the conservative think tanks that had been advanced by a Republican governor in Massachusetts. Now it’s time for the next step. And the next step is single payer.”
