Sen. Michael Bennet (D-CO) criticized the “Medicare for All” proposal released by Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) as “unrealistic,” The Hill reports.
Said Bennet: “Voters are sick and tired of politicians promising them things that they know they can’t deliver. Warren’s new numbers are simply not believable and have been contradicted by experts. Regardless of whether it’s $21 trillion or $31 trillion, this isn’t going to happen, and the American people need health care.”
