Republican Opportunity on Health Care | National Review

A National Review column argues Republicans should treat “Medicare for All” as a campaign issue rather than avoid it, asserting that many Democratic Senate candidates have already endorsed the proposal. The piece points to cosponsors from states that supported Kamala Harris in 2024, noting that 17 of 18 cosponsors come from those states, while exceptions are Tina Smith of Minnesota and Tammy Baldwin of Wisconsin. It says Democrats are now running three Senate nominees who endorse Medicare for All: candidates in Maine, Michigan, and Minnesota. The column claims the plan would remove coverage for “hundreds of millions” of Americans and cites concerns that even Medicare would change under the proposal.
