Politico reported that Wendell Primus, Pelosi’s health policy adviser, told a private meeting of policy groups on Nov. 30 that the push for the radical, single-player goal risked diverting from the party’s main health care message. NANCY PELOSI: JOE BIDEN IS NOT 'DISQUALIFIED FROM BEING PRESIDENT' BY RECENT ALLEGATIONS OF INAPPROPRIATE TOUCHINGMost top 2020 Democratic presidential candidates have backed a Medicare-for-all plan, with some proponents like Sens. Kamala Harris, D-Calif., and Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., embracing the possibility that it would end most private insurance plans. But while Democratic leaders have pushed for further health care reform, Pelosi has shied away from a full embrace of a Medicare-for-all plan. “Can you help us point out the problems?”A Pelosi spokesman disputed that Primus was looking for a “one-sided analysis” of the proposal.
