Sanders Introduces Single-Payer Bill

As the health reform debates heats up, Vermont Independent Sen.
Bernie Sanders introduced a single-payer health reform bill, the
American Health Security Act of 2009, in the
U.S. Senate last week. According to Sanders, the new legislation
— which would eliminate co-pays and deductibles and restore
choice of physician for those who currently lack coverage —
would save $400 billion on bureaucracy and be enough to cover all
46 million uninsured Americans. Read a copy of the bill.
