Democratic Congressmembers Pramila Jayapal and Debbie Dingell joined Vermont independent Senator Bernie Sanders on Tuesday in reintroducing the Medicare for All Act, which would provide universal single-payer healthcare based on patient needs, not industry profits.
Sen. Bernie Sanders: “Our legislation would provide comprehensive care to all Americans — rich, poor, young or old — with zero out-of-pocket expense. It would provide full freedom of choice regarding healthcare providers: You go to the doctor or the nurse that you want to. No more insurance premiums, no more deductibles, no more copayments, no more filling out endless forms!”
