I celebrate the plea by Luis Figueroa of Every Texan to fight for Medicaid expansion, driven by compassion and hard-eyed fiscal common sense.
At the same time, Every Texan could more effectively live up to its name by also demanding health care for, uh, every Texan. How? By urging Congress members across Texas to sign on to single-payer universal health care, Medicare for All.
The Congressional Budget Office recently determined that Medicare for All could save our nation as much as $650 billion a year. Nine percent of the U.S. population lives in Texas. Roughly, then, based on the CBO s findings Texans could see $58 billion of net cost savings, right back in our pocket.
