“No more tinkering around the edges.” Senator Bernie Sanders told NBC’s Meet the Press on Sunday that the election was about Americans demanding real change, not only expressing disgust with President Trump and his policies. Sanders said health care sits at the top of his list as he prepares to chair the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee.
Sanders said the United States should finally do what every other major country does and guarantee health care to every man, woman and child as a human right through a Medicare for All single-payer program. The Vermont independent spoke days after Democrats won control of both the Senate and the House in the midterm elections.
