Sanders says he'll introduce 'Medicare for All' bill

March 25, 2017 3:00 PM CDT

HARDWICK, Vt. (AP) — Vermont's congressional delegation called the defeat of the Republican health plan "a victory."

Independent Sen. Bernie Sanders told the crowd at a joint town hall meeting Saturday in Hardwick that he plans to introduce in the Senate a "Medicare for all" bill soon.

Democratic Rep. Peter Welch said he'd introduce the same bill in the House of Representatives. The hundreds of Vermonters who turned out for the meeting filling a small gymnasium stood on their feet and cheered.
