You've got to move toward expanding healthcare. You've got to raise the minimum wage to a living wage.

A woman's right to control her own body is really on the line, and we’ve got to do everything we can to defend that right.

You know what you do? You listen to the American people and not wealthy campaign contributors.

I ask for the yeas and nays. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there a sufficient second? There appears to be a sufficient second. The clerk will call the roll. The bill clerk called the roll. The result was announced--yeas 50, nays 50, as…

The leak of Associate Justice Alito's draft opinion on Dobbs v. Jackson was clearly illegal. That is why more than 20 Republican Members of the House joined me in calling on Attorney General Merrick Garland and FBI Director Wray to open a…

If we had Medicare for All before this pandemic started, hospitals would have been better prepared to respond.

Conservative governments have been in power in Canada, in the U.K., and they would not for a second try to get rid of their national health care system because it is so popular.

The genius of Medicare for All is not just that it solves coverage and cost.

I do not understand why my Republican friends are not jumping up and down and saying, Bernie, we are with you.

But we are in agreement that if everybody in this country were guaranteed comprehensive health care, people would be freer to leave their jobs and do what they really wanted to do?

If the people that run these big entities now do not do something about it, they should not have anyone to complain to because government will be the solution.

Now one of the reasons that Medicare For All is expensive is because it does what should be done, and that is make sure that every American has health care, provides quality care to all of our people.

There is probably no issue more important to the American people than health care.

Bottom line is that your health and your longevity, how long you live, should not be a factor of how much money you have.

I am tired of seeing working-class families and small business pay far more for health care than they can afford.

the option that most resembles the Medicare For All bill that I introduced, which is option three, would save the health care system $650 billion a year beginning in 2030

It is not acceptable to me that we end up spending over twice as much per capita on health care as other major countries around the world.
