    I believe Harris was against universal Healthcare for all :-(

      1. As president, it won’t matter. She’ll sign anything her party gives her to sign, because there’s zero reason for her to pick a fight with congressional democrats.
      2. In 2019 she literally and specifically backed Medicare for All, so this claim is factually incorrect.

      Harris healthcare plan in 2020 was to the left of Bidens, She called for Medicare for all. She dissagreed with Bernie about banning private insurance.

      She was not against universal healthcare. I doubt she is now. If Dems sweep the house and somehow picked up 10 seats in the Senate (impossible) she might try to go for it.

      It’s not impossible in 2026 for Dems to make big gains in the Senate, but it is very, very unlikely.
