Warren says how she'll pay for Medicare for All

Sen. Elizabeth Warren's "Medicare for All" plan promises to expand health care coverage by increasing taxes on the wealthy and corporations while not placing a hike on the middle class.

Warren says the funding for the program will mostly come from a combination of tax hikes on corporations and the top 1%, as well as a shift in employer health spending. Biden: Joe Biden describes his health care plan using Pete Buttigieg's term, 'Medicare for all who want it'Rep. Pramila Jayapal, D-Wash., who co-chairs the Congressional Progressive Caucus and was the lead co-sponsor of the Medicare for All Act in the House, tweeted that Warren's plan"shows we can spend less & cover everyone w/guaranteed, comprehensive care."

“It’s fascinating that the person who has a plan for everything has no plan for the single most consequential thing in this election in the minds of the American people, across the board," former Vice President Joe Biden said at the October debate in Ohio. Warren's rivals have presented plans that would expand health care coverage but would phase in the program more slowly, or provide Americans the option to opt in to the coverage.
