The Hill: Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) is planning to introduce a single-payer healthcare bill in Congress.
The Vermont senator said during a town hall Saturday he plans to introduce a "Medicare for all" bill "within a couple of weeks," Vermont Public Radio reported.
“It is a commonsense proposal, and I think once the American people understand it, we can go forward with it,” Sanders said after the town hall meeting.
During the town hall, Rep. Peter Welch (D-Vt.) said he would introduce the same bill in the House.
