Warren has a plan for everything — except this
Warren, a Massachusetts senator and a leading liberal Democratic presidential candidate, has stood out in the 2020 race for her extraordinary focus on detailed plans to address the nation's most pressing issues. Her website lists specific policies for 43 topics, from gun violence and Social Security to the Electoral College and family farmers.
The issue is a delicate one for Warren. She needs to unify the progressive wing behind her candidacy to overtake Biden in the primary, if she is to emerge as the nominee against President Donald Trump in the general election. "Making clear that they're aligned on the North Star goal of Medicare for All is an important long-term investment in her relationship with Sanders' voters — as well as an important short-term investment in clarity for all voters," said Adam Green, co-founder of the Progressive Change Campaign Committee and a vocal Warren supporter.
A spokeswoman later clarified that Warren does not support any plans on health care and that the senator's reference to supporting"a lot of plans" applied only to other policies. But she suggested that only Sanders is invested enough in the plan to ensure it ultimately becomes law.Katherine Brezler, who co-founded the group People for Bernie Sanders, said Warren's embrace of Sanders' health plan has helped maintain good relations between the two competitors and their supporters.
