Liberal Alaska Senate Candidate, Al Gross Falsely Claims He Never Backed Medicare for All

WFB:

Alaska Senate candidate Al Gross (I.) used to boast of being an “outspoken advocate” of single-payer health care, but now that he’s running for statewide office his position is that he “never” supported such a system.

“Some of you may know me as an outspoken advocate for a single-payer system in Alaska or national,” Gross said in 2017 at a public policy forum addressing health care. He also tweeted in 2018 that America needed “a Medicare for all type of health care system,” but last month when a questioner on Alaska Public Media read Gross his own words, he denied ever saying them.

“I never said that,” he told the radio audience. “I’ve never said that I support Medicare for All as a policy for America.”

But the tweet he was asked about is still posted on his Twitter. more

  1. What the Hell brings out the Losers and Lunatics in all parties in Alaska. Must be too much fresh air and too much frozen ground. Lots of losers migrate up there to get away from failed lives, but then they run for public office and forget what they said just a few years ago. Every six or twelve years they send some screw up to Washington to wreck things for the rest of us.
