Need for Single-payer Health Insurance

I support passing single-payer Medicare for All (age 55+) and restoring an improved version of original Obamacare for everyone else.

America has by far the highest cost of healthcare in the world — about $5.3 trillion in 2025, about 18% of GDP or about $15,500 per person — with only middling results. Costs continue to rise. Many of us are under-covered or entirely left out.

We need well-care, not sick-care. The only way to improve health and healthcare across America and to take a significant chunk out of U.S. healthcare costs is through broad, single-payer health insurance.
