Gillum today: "Healthcare is a right."

https://twitter.com/andrewgillum/status/1035239841959739399?s=21

Boom.

Full stop.

No qualifications. No equivocations.

Not "access to private health insurance is a right." Not "health insurance coverage is a right."

"Healthcare is a right."

Imagine where our party could be if more Democrats would fully, wholeheartedly embrace this position. People are pleading for it. Hell, people are literally dying, every day, for lack of it.

More Democrats like Andrew Gillum, please.
