Affordable Health Care for All

[Disclaimer: This post was first published on Coleen Rowley's campaign weblog.]

The New York Times is reporting that a panel which Congress created is advising Congress to take immediate steps to guarantee affordable health care to all Americans by 2012.

The panel, the Citizens’ Health Care Working Group, said Congress should create an independent "public-private entity" to define a basic set of health care benefits and services for all Americans.

While leaving many details to be worked out, the panel declared, "It should be public policy, written in law, that all Americans have affordable access to health care."

Apart from the specific date of 2012, this goal is remarkably similar to Coleen's stated position on health care.
