Excepts from their email: Note: Bernie Sanders is a self-proclaimed socialist, Bernie and David quoted in the same email? YEP!
Yesterday’s Supreme Court ruling on health care proved it’s possible for the good guys to win. Even a right-wing Court agreed that the federal government has wide authority to improve people’s lives — handing a major defeat to the Tea Party.
It was also a big step forward for health care reform. Millions of people with pre-existing conditions can now get health insurance. Many lives will be saved.
It’s important to celebrate victories. It’s also important to be honest when there’s more work to be done.
The truth is that the “mandate” to buy private health insurance is an idea conceived by the right-wing Heritage Foundation. It puts millions of people at the mercy of corporations that profit by denying people care.
Few Democratic politicians were willing to acknowledge that yesterday, but Senator Bernie Sanders and a handful of progressive congressional candidates did. Like Illinois Dr. David Gill.
They celebrated our victory, but also made clear that progressives are fighting for a better (and more popular) health care solution: Medicare For All.
If we want to pass bold progressive change in the future, we won’t do it by being silent. We need leaders who are willing to make the case to the public — and then win.
Tomorrow is a big fundraising deadline, so they’ll especially appreciate your donation now. Thanks for being a bold progressive.

SEN. BERNIE SANDERS:
Today is a good day for millions of Americans who have pre-existing conditions who can no longer be rejected by insurance companies. It is a good day for families with children under 26…
In my view, while the Affordable Care Act is an important step in the right direction and I am glad that the Supreme Court upheld it, we ultimately need to do better. If we are serious about providing high-quality, affordable healthcare as a right, not a privilege, the real solution to America’s health care crisis is a Medicare-for-all, single-payer system…
I am proud that Vermont is making steady progress toward implementing a single-payer system. I hope our state will be a model to show the rest of the nation.
DR. DAVID GILL (CONGRESSIONAL CANDIDATE, ILLINOIS 13)
The U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling this morning upholding The Affordable Care Act ensures that important gains will be preserved.
[But] I believe it was a mistake to design a plan that forces Americans to buy coverage from high-profit insurance companies. The plan gave too much control, and too much of our money, to the insurance and pharmaceutical industries…
There is a better, more affordable option: Medicare for All. As an ER physician and family practice doctor, I’ve seen how well Medicare works…Medicare is more cost-efficient than private insurance and doesn’t profit by denying care.
This election offers voters a clear choice. I support expanding Medicare. My Republican opponent Rodney Davis supports Paul Ryan’s plan to end Medicare.
Question Dr. Gill:
The Affordable Care Act takes half a billion dollars OUT of Medicare and adds taxes to Medical Devices (knee replacements, hip replacements etc) Exactly WHO is trying to end Medicare? Maybe you should look at Ryan’s plan again instead of using talking points.
