“It is Bernie Sanders who has made guaranteeing health care to everyone through an improved Medicare for all, which is also the best way to solve the crisis of medical debt, a centerpiece of his campaign,” said RoseAnn DeMoro, Executive Director of NNU.

“Bernie is the also the candidate who is not only fighting for raising the minimum wage to $15 an hour, but has sponsored legislation to do so. He was the first major candidate to oppose the Trans-Pacific Partnership, the latest trade deal which will harm U.S. workers and raise the already inflated prescription drug prices,” DeMoro said. “All of these issues are critical to public health—and to that end, important to nurses, who are the ones at the bedside, caring for the public.”
