How Kamala Harris' "Medicare for All" plan differs from Bernie Sanders

• It would preserve private insurance. Harris would allow for a privately managed version of a single-payer program, similar to Medicare Advantage. Sanders would not.
• Slower phase-in: Sanders' plan would phase in over 4 years. Harris' would be 10 years.
• Different taxes: Sanders has acknowledged that his proposal would require raising taxes on some middle-class families, though he has argued that those families wouldn't pay more overall — rather, their premiums and deductibles would become taxes.
• Harris, though, says her version wouldn't raise taxes on anyone making less than $100,000. She's proposing a new tax on stock trades instead.

My thought bubble: Harris has gone back and forth on the elimination of private insurance, a centerpiece of Sanders' plan. Today's proposal gives her a firm answer.

The bottom line: It won't make Sanders fans happy, but winning over Sanders fans was never Harris' path to the nomination.
