Bernie Sanders unveils a more ambitious new Medicare for All plan
Undaunted by skepticism over the political viability of"Medicare for All," Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders on Wednesday unveiled a new and more sweeping version of his signature health care bill.
Sanders is introducing the revamped proposal in the midst of a charged political moment, as the Democratic presidential primary heats up and the Trump administration makes a fresh push to topple Obamacare in the courts. But even as they circle the wagons around the current law, Democrats are eyeing the future -- and the prospects of enacting a single-payer system that would fundamentally re-order American life well beyond doctors' offices and emergency rooms.
