Sen. Amy Klobuhcar took on fellow Democratic presidential primary candidates who embrace Medicare For All, saying: “I’ve read the bill.”

After Sen. Bernie Sanders repeated his mantra that “I wrote the bill,” and Sen. Elizabeth Warren insisted “the only difference is where to send the bill,” Klobuchar stepped in.

“Sen. Sanders and I have worked together… but when it comes to our healthcare and our premiums,  I go with the doctors. ‘Do no harm,’” she said.

“Bernie wrote the bill, I read the bill… We will no longer have healthcare as we know it.”

“I don’t think it’s a bold idea, i think it’s a bad idea.”
