ONCE AGAIN: @BernieSanders co-sponsored @ewarren's robust #ACA2.0 bill until less than a year ago before stripping his name off of it and crapping all over it even in the short term.
Also, @ewarren is cosponsoring a *Medicaid* buy-in bill by @brianschatz. And @KamalaHarris has cosponsored various other major healthcare expansion bills. And @JoeBiden's "#ACA2wPO" proposal is a cross between Warren's #ACA2.0 & @SenJeffMerkley/@ChrisMurphyCT's "Choose Medicare".
Point being, THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH COSPONSORING MULTIPLE BILLS ON THE SAME ISSUE. Whatever the final bill ends up being, it will hopefully take the best elements of each and mush them together into something like...oh, say, @BetoORourke's #MedicareForAmerica? :)
