DSA Rep.-Elect Gonzales-Torres: ‘Medicare-for-All Is Bare Minimum’

EXCERPT:

GONZALES-TORRES: “I mean, fortunately, and I have to tell you, the energy here in D.C. is electric. I mean, the Progressive Caucus had a press conference yesterday alone, and you can feel that we are ready to actually fight for these bare minimum things that people should be guaranteed across the country. Medicare for All is bare minimum. And I think that there's certainly a difference between former elected officials that would just co-sponsor or sign onto these bills and those of us moving into Congress this January that will actually fight for it and make sure that we're doing everything that we can to let people know what abolish ICE even means, holding accountable those masked agents that are terrorizing our communities, redirecting those funds back into our districts.”
