Support state bill creating universal single-payer health care program
In Plain English
Senate Bill 562 would create a statewide health care system where the government pays all medical bills instead of private insurance companies. The city council is considering a formal statement supporting this proposed state legislation. If the bill passes in Sacramento, all California residents would receive health care coverage through a single government program.
