Bernie Sanders rebuffs Biden's Medicare-for-All criticism, says he and AOC are working for agenda 'America needs'
Senator Bernie Sanders rebuffed 2020 rival Joe Biden's criticism of his Medicare-for-All health care plan, and argues that he was working alongside fellow progressive lawmakers like Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to create a political agenda"America needs."
Biden also swiped at Sanders' Medicare-for-All universal health care proposal, saying that he has a plan that's"rational" and will"cost a hell of a lot less." The former vice president said he would not eliminate private insurance like the Sanders proposal intends, but would offer Medicare as an option for anyone who wants to buy into the system.
