State legislators introduce single-payer bill for New York State

Last week, Senator Thomas Duane and Assembly member Richard Gottfried introduced their bill that would create a universal, single-payer healthcare system in New York. The bill is an updated version of one introduced by Gottfried in the early 90s. If it passes, New York would become the second state, following Vermont, to pass such legislation. Several other states are moving toward single payer, and California’s legislature came within two votes of passing such a bill earlier this year. Onward!
