Description
On this episode of the podcast, Nathan sits down with State Senator Gustavo Rivera (NY-33), who is the Chairman of the Committee on Health. If there's going to be any type of healthcare reform in New York State, Senator Rivera is going to be one of the elected officials leading the charge. In this wide-ranging (and fast-moving) interview, Senator Rivera covers his favorite topics: universal healthcare, the myths behind the criticisms of single-payer healthcare, and his background as a political operative. This episode was recorded several weeks ago at Senator Rivera's office so some items may have changed by the time you listen. Additionally, at times, the audio volume might vary based on who's speaking. Thank you for understanding, and enjoy the episode!
