Description

Medicare for All has become a rallying cry for the Left. But do Americans know what this proposal entails? Wait lines, cancelled procedures, and government bureaucrats interfering in doctor patient relationships; the realities of a “Medicare for All” type system are a stark contrast from the posterchild created by its advocates. Join us for a conversation with Congressman Burgess, an obstetrician with 30 years’ experience and Congresswoman McMorris Rodgers, co-chair of the Rural Health Caucus and the Down Syndrome Caucus, on the truth of what government run health care would look like in practice.
