Sen. Kamala Harris plans to back Medicare-for-all legislation

[wasupaloopa]

Sen. Kamala Harris will co-sponsor a Medicare-for-all plan proposed by Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), she told Californians at a town hall in Oakland on Wednesday.

The freshman Democratic senator from California has previously said she supports the concept of universal healthcare, but this is the first time she has explicitly said she would join Sanders when he files the bill. The House version of the measure, sponsored by Rep. John Conyers Jr. (D-Mich.), has 117 sponsors, including 27 California Democratic House members.

1. A big waste of time...for God sakes...the ACA needs help or we will have no insurance of any sort.

I prefer a dose of reality now and again. This thing has no chance of passing GOP controlled congress with Trump in office.
