New York gubernatorial candidate Cynthia Nixon—a progressive facing off against incumbent Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo—released a new video on Tuesday calling for a statewide single-payer healthcare system.

“Healthcare should be a human right, not a privilege for those who can afford it,” Nixon declares. “When I’m governor, we’ll pass the New York Health Act and create a single-payer, Medicare for All system that covers every New Yorker. It’ll dramatically lower the cost of healthcare by taking on the greed of Big Pharma and insurance companies who make billions off of human suffering.”

The New York native recalls her mother discovering signs of breast cancer, but putting off a trip to the doctor because she lacked health insurance. Noting that the state Assembly has passed the bill several times, Nixon concludes, “Every single New Yorker can have good healthcare with no co-pays and no deductibles, but first we have to start sending Democrats to Albany who stand with people not corporations.”
