Position history

Healthcare

   Beyond that, I want to make sure that we have a public option so that a public entity is able to compete alongside private insurers. If you like your private insurance, you're able to keep that health insurance. If you'd rather opt into the public option, you're able to do that, and that increased competition will lower costs.

   I think that it's pretty clear what we need to do to make sure that we allow for Social Security to maintain itself into the future, and that's to make sure that billionaires pay their fair share. Right now, they stop paying into Social Security after the first few hours of the new year.
