Why we checked itSpecific dollar figure attributed to opponent's policy (described as involving government health insurance takeover) — verifiable against independent cost analyses of the proposed policy.
What we foundThe claim that El-Sayed's plan would cost each family about $20,000 per year in new taxes is overstated: the $20,000 figure appears in CRFB analysis as one specific mandatory-premium financing scenario for generic Medicare for All, not as a net new tax on every family, and El-Sayed has not released a detailed financing plan.
