Dr. Joe: Biden Promises To Return Obamacare Mandate If Elected President

There’s a new doctor in the house. It’s Joe Biden. Joe said he vehemently supported bringing back the Obamacare individual healthcare mandate. He came out earlier last year in support of returning the highly unpopular plank of Obamacare, and now he’s doubling down. Republicans ultimately gutted the regulation once taking majority power.

“Yes, I’d bring back the individual mandate,” Biden said in an interview with CNN. “The individual mandate would be popular now, compared to what’s being offered,” he added.

Biden: "If you provide an option for anybody who in fact wants to buy into Medicare for All, they can buy in… But if they like their employer-based insurance, which a lot of unions broke their neck to get… they shouldn't have to give it up" https://t.co/tDM9CsVNv8 pic.twitter.com/sQw4q65gou

Last summer, he grabbed headlines for backing up the mandate. Now with his possible democratic party nomination, it seems more close to reality should he unseat the popular President Trump in November.

Biden also wants to give illegals free healthcare as well, according to the same interviews.
