A group of delegates who are backing Sen. Bernies Sanders is putting pressure on the Democratic Party to include certain issues to the platform. The delegates are using their collective voices to really push the party platform in a progressive direction.

Hundreds of Sen. Bernie Sanders delegates are not budging on “Medicare For All.”

According to Politico, the delegates, who are going to the convention for Sen. Sanders, are planning their revolt. Democrats are three weeks away from their convention and these delegates are planning their resistance if the Democratic platform doesn’t include what they want.

There is growing support for the movement.

Sanders supporters have been a vocal portion of the Democratic Party. The voters have a vision for the U.S. that is far different than the current reality. Sanders voters are sending a message to the Democratic Party: be progressive or lose voters.

Medicare For All has become more and more important to voters.

Since the Covid outbreak, support for Medicare for All has reached 69 percent. With two-thirds of polled Americans supporting Medicare for All, it does seem that public opinion has shifted since Covid.

“This pandemic has shown us that our private health insurance system does not work for the American people. Millions of people have lost their jobs and their health care at the same time,” Judith Whitmer, a Sanders delegate told Politico. “There’s people leaving the hospital now with millions of dollars in medical bills. What are we going to do about that?”

And, of course, some people are not happy with this pushback.

The Democratic National Convention, where the pushback is happening, is all online this year. There won’t be as big of a resistance visibly present but the desire for Medicare for All is growing. The Latino community, the hardest-hit group from Covid, would benefit greatly from a larger effort to insure the health of all people in the U.S.
