"Americans
should not have to live in fear that they will
go bankrupt if they get sick." ~ Sen.
Bernie Sanders
|
|
"As
a nation, we continue paying far more per capita
for health are than any other nation." ~ Sen.
Bernie Sanders
|
|
"As
we celebrate the 50th anniversary of Medicare, it
is important that we defend this enormously important
program rather than talk about ending it...The time
has come also to say that we need to expand Medicare
to cover every man, woman and child as a single-payer,
national healthcare program."
~ Sen.
Bernie Sanders |
|
"At
a time when 35 million Americans lack health insurance,
Planned Parenthood clinics all over the country
provide the care too many women cannot access elsewhere."
~ Sen.
Bernie Sanders |
|
"Despite
the modest gains of the Affordable Care Act we have
30 million people who still have no health insurance,
and more importantly, millions more are underinsured
with high copayments and high deductibles."
~ Sen.
Bernie Sanders |
|
"Health
care must be recognized as a right, not a privilege.
Every man, woman and child in our country should
be able to access the health care they need regardless
of their income. The only long-term solution to
America's health care crisis is a single-payer
national health care program."
~ Sen.
Bernie Sanders
|
|
"Income
and wealth inequality is a matter of life and
death. In 2008, college-educated white men had
life expectancies of 14.2 years longer than black
men with fewer than 12 years of education. The
rich get rich and are living longer. The poor
get poorer and, in many cases, are dying younger.
We need a national health care program which guarantees
health care for ALL."
~ Sen.
Bernie Sanders

"It
is not utopian thinking to say that every man,
woman and child should have access to health care
as a right." ~ Sen.

"It
is unacceptable that the monthly cost of cancer
drugs has more than doubled over the last ten
years to $9,990. In the United States of America,
you should not be forced into bankruptcy for being
diagnosed with cancer."
~ Sen.
Bernie Sanders
|

Medicare
is more cost-effective than private insurers, and
could serve as the foundation for a single-payer
system.
~ Sen.
Bernie Sanders |
|
One
out of five Americans who don't have a doctor and
get a prescription, cannot afford to fill that prescription.
~ Sen.
Bernie Sanders |
|
"Shamefully,
the United States remains the only major country
on earth that does not guarantee health care to
all people. The United States must move toward
a Medicare-for-all single-payer system. Health
care is a right, not a privilege."
~ Sen.
Bernie Sanders
|
|
"Stripping
funding for Planned Parenthood would punish the
2.7 million Americans, especially low-income women,
who rely on its clinics for affordable, quality
health care services including cancer prevention,
STI and HIV testing and general primary health care
services."
~ Sen.
Bernie Sanders |
|
"The
skyrocketing prices of prescription drugs are an
example of the web of bureaucracy and red tape in
the American health care system. What we need is
a national health care system that puts people ahead
of profits and health ahead of special interests."
~ Sen.
Bernie Sanders |
|
"The
United States should join every other major nation
and recognize that health care is a right of citizenship.
A Medicare-for-all, single-payer system would provide
better care at less cost for more Americans."
~ Sen.
