Americans need health insurance that works, like a public insurance trust paying private providers for all of us. We pay more than all of our peer industrialized nations for healthcare by a factor of two. Universal Healthcare, like HR 3069, will cost Americans $750 billion less every year according to the 2020 non partisan CBO report. We allow insurance companies to dictate care and that results in between 35,000 and 45,000 needless deaths yearly according to Physicians For A National Health Plan A Gallup poll recently shows that 62% of Americans want the government to get in the game and make sure we all have health insurance. H.R. 3069, the Medicare For All Of Us Act, has Global Budgets to cover medical facility infrastructure costs so departments don’t have to close. It has regional administration budgets to make sure that doctors and facilities are in place in medical deserts, like rural areas. I know you want to save money, I know you care about your constituents, I know saving lives is important to you. Step up and show it and get HR 3069, the Medicare For All Of Us Act passed. Thank you.
