PNHP national board member Dr. Jessica Schorr Saxe spoke to WBTV (the CBS affiliate in Charlotte, N.C.) for a news segment that aired September 4, 2025.
Dr. Saxe was part of a contingent of Medicare for All supporters that attended the Mecklenburg County Commissioners meeting where the board voted unanimously in support of federal single-payer legislation.
“It’s bad enough when you’re sick,” said Dr. Saxe, “but [the U.S. is] the only place where it’s a double whammy: you’re sick, and then you worry about your bills.”
