Nurses Continue to Protest Senate Hearings on Healthcare, Advocate Single Payer

GRITtv
Nurses and doctors continue to protest against the exclusion of single payer advocates at Senate Finance Committee hearings on healthcare. As the hearing began, 25 protesters stood and turned their backs to the senators. They were wearing signs that called on congress to pass a single payer system. "Nurses say patients first," the signs read. "Pass single payer."

Though most of the protesters left after about five minutes, a few remained to voice their opposition. Two nurses and three physicians were arrested.
