Franken backs Sanders' 'Medicare for All' bill

Franken backs Sanders' 'Medicare for All' bill
BY JACQUELINE THOMSEN - 09/12/17 06:31 PM EDT

Sen. Al Franken (D-Minn.) said Tuesday he would support Sen. Bernie Sanders's (I-Vt.) “Medicare for All” bill, the latest Democrat to throw their support behind the proposal.

“Like Paul Wellstone I’ve always believe that health care is a right for all Americans — not a privilege — and that every person in our country deserves access to the care they need,” Franken said in a statement posted on Facebook.
