Why Single Payer in Vermont?

Vermont has always lead led the nation in reform. We can be the first state to establish a truly universal health care for all because our citizen legislature is closer to the citizens of our state, and with a true grassroots effort they will respond.

Senator Bernie Sanders is supportive of our efforts, and has said;

"The quickest route toward a national health care program will be when individual states go forward and demonstrate that universal and non-profit health care works, and that it is the cost-effective and moral thing to do.”

For a brilliant and concise explanation of why single payer is the way we must move forward watch Senator Bernie Sanders' comments from the floor of the U.S. Senate, December 16, 2009.

We are poised to be a leader again and hope you will join us and to help Vermont make history by passing Single Payer Health Care in 2010.
