Sanders Denies Saying Republican Health Care Bill Would Kill People

EXCERPT:

BILA: "You yourself have said Republicans are potentially killing Americans. Is that rhetoric irresponsible? And does it provide an impasse to compromise? If you’re going to sit down with those very people that you said want to kill people —"
SANDERS: "I never said — that's not — you’re using rhetoric that I didn’t use."
BILA: "These are quotes."
SANDERS: ”This is what I said, and it’s not me, this is a dozen or more studies that show that if you throw 22 million people off the insurance they have — these are people who have cancer. These are people who have heart disease, diabetes, other life-threatening illnesses. What study after study shows is that thousands of those people will die. That’s what Harvard says. That's what study after study shows. It's not me, I'm just telling you what the studies are showing."
