The Medicare for All Act of 2025

On April 29, 2025, Rep. Pramila Jayapal, Rep. Debbie Dingell, and Sen. Bernie Sanders introduced the Medicare for All Act in the U.S. House (H.R. 3069) and U.S. Senate (S. 1506). These landmark pieces of legislation would finally establish a single-payer national health program in the United States.

PNHP welcomes these bills and urges Congress to move quickly to guarantee universal coverage, comprehensive benefits, and zero out-of-pocket costs for all U.S. residents.
