PNHP national board secretary Dr. Ed Weisbart spoke to the MediasTouch podcast on Jan. 23, 2026. He discussed the looming threats of Medicaid cuts and ACA premium increases—along with the urgent need for Medicare for All.
“It drives us crazy to know that the only reason people in this country can’t afford to get the lifesaving health care they need is because insurance corporations have put themselves in the middle,” said Dr. Weisbart.
“[They] have corrupted our democracy, and are finding every gain they can make to turn a profit.”
