Medicare For All 

A single payer healthcare bill proposed in the United States that works by expanding the already existing Medicare program to cover all citizens.

Medicare For All funds healthcare through taxes, rather than paying premiums and deductibles to profit-driven insurance companies.

This is important legislation because the United States is the only developed nation that doesn’t have universal care for all of its citizens.
If we had Medicare for All, then you’d never have to worry about out of pocket healthcare expenses again.
