What's in Joe Biden's healthcare plan

What’s in @JoeBiden's health care plan:
-> Public option offered on the marketplace along w/ private ones.
-> Workers on employer-sponsored plans could shop for better deals on exchanges.
-> Low-income families choose between Medicaid and public option.

If you're laid off or fired, you can still shop on the exchange Qutzupalotl Apr 2020 #4

until they are laid-off or fired, as we see during this crisis

hopefully we can push Joe along on this one

health care is a human right, not a fucking marketplace

Employees being able to shop the exchanges was always desired. They need to be able to, and employers want out of the insurance provision business too. And the rest of course.
