19 years ago last month, my mother passed away from breast cancer. She fought bravely for 11 years.
Here’s the thing, she was lucky because she had health insurance. A lot of Americans can’t say the same.
My mother’s experience has helped define my stance on healthcare. Her story, and the stories of millions of other Americans, are why I support Medicare for All.
I support Medicare for All because:
- No Americans should worry about losing health insurance when they lose a job.
- No Americans should be one fall or one slip away from bankruptcy.
- No Americans should hesitate to retire just because they’re years away from Medicare.
It’s just wrong that over 33 million Americans lack insurance, especially during this pandemic.
My campaign posted a video where I explain my passion for Medicare for All. Check it out on Facebook and Twitter below. Please share with your friends and family.
Thank you for hearing me out,
Tom Nelson
