Pandemic memo to Democratic leadership: this is a long-term emergency.

Time to stop talking about “affordable” healthcare and start getting serious about truly universal healthcare.

That means everyone in, nobody out. Also known as Medicare for All.

COVID-19 and mass unemployment have exposed the cruel folly of tying healthcare to employment. Talking about “affordable” healthcare isn& #39;t enough.

We can and must do much better: recognize healthcare as a human right and implement Medicare for All ASAP. Democrats must lead.

Americans are sick of hearing about "affordable" healthcare when so often it isn’t.

When people don’t go to a doctor or get prescriptions due to cost, our nation is diminished.

Time to stop serving the insurance industry.

We need emergency measures for universal coverage now.

COVID-19 is laying bare the necessity of truly universal healthcare. Medicare for All is a moral imperative—and overwhelmingly popular with Americans.

We need our party platform to catch up with moral vision and public opinion. https://thehill.com/hilltv/what-americas-thinking/494602-poll-69-percent-of-voters-support-medicare-for-all">https://thehill.com/hilltv/wh...

Medicare for All must be part of our party platform like it was in 1980 & before. As chair of the CA delegation, I will fight for that. If we as a nation have approved Medicare paying for COVID-19 treatment, why wouldn’t we believe it should pay for the treatment of any disease?
