“What we understand is that it is just not acceptable that 30 million Americans have no health insurance and even more are underinsured with high deductibles and high co-payments,” the Independent senator and 2020 president hopeful said.
Senator Bernie Sanders warned on Sunday that he believes many Americans could die if President Donald Trump’s plan for healthcare moves forward.
Sanders has regularly pushed for what has become known as "Medicare for All” — the expansion of a government-funded isurance option to all Americans — and is currently polling as one of the top contenders to win the Democratic nomination and potentially face Trump in 2020. The senator also said Sunday that he plans to reintroduce his Medicare for All plan within “the next couple of weeks.”
Despite significant criticism from Republicans and some Democrats, Medicare for All appears to be gaining widespread popular support. A survey released by Reuters last August revealed that 70 percent of Americans support the progressive healthcare idea. It enjoyed support from 85 percent of Democrats and even a slim majority of Republicans, at 52 percent, according to the poll.“Let me just tell you exactly what my message is: The Republican Party will soon be known as the party of health care.
