Sign your name to demand that Congress expand Medicare by:
- Adding dental, hearing, and vision care
- Creating an out-of-pocket cap on expenses so that health care costs don’t bankrupt seniors
- Lowering Medicare’s eligibility age
- Giving Medicare the power to negotiate prices with pharmaceutical corporations, lowering costs for everyone in the process

John,
The closer we get to expanding Medicare, the more lobbyists health care and Pharma corporations send to Congress. They’re trying to twist the arms of people elected to serve the American people, hoping to force President Biden to break his campaign promises about adding dental, hearing and vision coverage to Medicare, and giving Medicare the power to negotiate lower drug prices.
Corporate lobbyists can show politicians the money. But we’ve got people, and the people want Medicare expanded! Sign today to show your support!
Our partners at More Perfect Union interviewed former Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid about the importance of dental care for older people. He put it simply: “If you don’t have teeth, you can’t eat.” 84% of voters agree and want Medicare to cover dental!
Expanding Medicare is really, really popular. That’s why corporate lobbyists are working so hard to smother it. They’re having their mouthpieces―corporate Democrats like Joe Manchin and Josh Gottheimer―complain about the overall cost of the Build Back Better plan in the hopes that they can leave Medicare out, or cut off funding for home-based care.
It’s going to take all of our voices to overcome the petty objections of corporate Democrats in Congress. Add your name today: Tell Congress to EXPAND Medicare!
Thanks,
