Members of the coalition support universal health care coverage for all New Yorkers. We believe health care coverage should be provided through a combination of private and government funded health insurance. We support allowing a variety of health care coverage options – employer-based, private and public health insurance programs – rather than forcing all New Yorkers to use a single government-run health insurance program.
Since more than 95% of New Yorkers already have healthcare coverage, universal coverage is a realistic goal that New York can achieve without raising taxes by the hundreds of billions of dollars required to implement a Single Payer health care system.
