Al Gore Speaks Out in Favor of Single Payer

Al Gore recently spoke out [1] in favor of single-payer universal health care, like the legislation I have drafted, HR 676.

While the presidential campaign has focused attention on universal health care, there are still many who advocate for a solution that looks to insurance companies to fill the void.

Many advocate extending the Congress' coverage plan to the uninsured, or to all Americans. Unfortunately, this federal government plan [2] will not solve the problem of vastly expanding health insurance costs.

We need to get the profit out of health care. Only a single payer plan will achieve this.

My petition for HR 676 and single payer health care has attracted over 13,370 signatures. If you haven't yet shown your support, please sign up today [3]. To share with a friend, click here [4].
