People Want Medicare 4 All
Late last night, Senate Budget Committee Democrats announced their plans to expand Medicare to include dental, vision, and hearing benefits in the next budget reconciliation package. This is a significant step forward – and it wouldn’t have been possible without relentless organizing.
But we’re not across the finish line yet. We must fight to ensure that the final reconciliation bill includes full coverage of dental, vision, and hearing benefits, and, we must keep demanding that Congress include provisions to allow Medicare to negotiate drug prices, lower the eligibility age to 60, and include an out-of-pocket cap. We have an opportunity to expand and improve health care for millions of people now if we take action.
SWeeps, you have a vital role to play. We need you to urge them to support Medicare expansion at this pivotal moment.
