As millions of people face losing their health insurance following

Between millions who are soon to be outright kicked off programs like
Medicaid and millions more who are being hit by skyrocketing premiums

That’s why more and more candidates are putting Medicare for All front and

Medicare for All like a pie-in-the-sky idea. Instead, as The New Republic

others should be relentless in their demand for Medicare for All.”
If we’re going to pass guaranteed health care, we need to make sure people
know about what’s at stake and the momentum behind our movement. [ [link removed] ]Can
