Senator Bernie Sanders Seeks Role as Senate Health Chair!
As Chair of the HELP committee, Sen. Sanders would focus on Medicare-for-All,
Workers’ Rights and Affordable Higher Education.
Example of M4A Affordability:
#MedicareForAll Formula: Your Gross Income minus (-) $29,000 X 4% or 5% = Annual Contribution / 12 = monthly contribution.
Income:
$0 - $29,000 = $ 0 annual contribution
$30,000 = $ 40 - 50 annual contribution
$35,000 = $240 - $300 annually, $12 - $25 monthly
$40,000 = $440 - $550 annually, $37 - $46 monthly
$45,000 = $640 - $800 annually, $53 - $67 monthly
$50,000 = $840 - $1050 annually, $70 - $87.50 per month
$60,000 = $1240 -$1550 annually, $103 -$129 per month
$75,000 = $1840 -$2300 annually, $153 - $192 per month
$80,000 = $3200 -$4000 annually, $266 - $333 per month
No additional out-of-pocket charges/expenses.
Compare to the current cost of_ #Premium + #Deductible + #CoPays; #MedicareForAll = 1/2 - 2/3 less of the average-patient-cost for #Healthcare in the #UnitedStates.
