When Joe co-sponsored Medicare for All in Congress, he didn't know the toll COVID-19 would take on this country.
What he did know was that our health care system was broken. That too many folks were being priced out of life-saving care. That health care workers across the country weren't treated with the respect they deserved. And that in the wealthiest country on earth, everyone should be able to keep the people they love healthy and whole.
Health care has been the fight of Joe's career. He is running for Senate because the stakes have never been higher. We need the strongest leadership possible to ensure our system can take care of every single person in need — especially now.
Joe's fight for a better, more affordable, and more equitable health care system isn't something new. It isn't something he picked up because it's an election year. He has been on the frontlines of our health care fights for the past eight years.

He led House Democrats in stopping Donald Trump's attempts to completely undo the ACA.

What we are saying is this: health care isn't just one of many issues for Joe. It's THE issue. There is nothing he has or he will fight harder for than this. Just look at his record.
We hope you're staying safe and healthy during these unprecedented times. Be well. And let's keep fighting.
