Eric Massa of New York�s 29th District has been making the case for single payer healthcare. The advice he was given when he decided to run for congress was, “don�t do it.” As a first year congressman he�s been advised not to take a stand, especially on a hot button issue like healthcare. But rather than accept the conventional wisdom, Massa has voted against the bank bailout and fought loudly for single payer healthcare. A cancer survivor, Massa says that the healthcare system in this country is literally killing people. And Massa says that he hopes a public option is part of any healthcare bill that emerges from congress this year.
