Joe Biden’s campaign slammed Sen. Kamala Harris for releasing a “have-it-every-which-way” healthcare plan that both tries to take from Bernie Sanders’ Medicare for All Act, while allowing some plans to be administered by private insurers.
The campaign on Monday was quick to draw attention to the timeline of the plan, which allows for a 10-year implementation period. Such a proposal is more lengthy than the four-year timeline set up under the Sanders Medicare for All Act, but would eclipse the duration of a two-term presidency, allowing a future administration to make drastic changes.
