AFL-CIO Survey Shows Healthcare System in Crisis

Source: AFL-CIO

A new survey released March 25 by the AFL-CIO finds that an astounding 95 percent of those who responded say that the nation's healthcare system needs to be completely rebuilt or fundamentally changed. Nearly 27,000 people--including 1,600 AFT members--completed the online survey, and more than 7,000 submitted personal and often painful stories about their own healthcare woes.
