Vermont senator Bernie Sanders returning to West Virginia for health care rally

Those who didn’t get a chance to “feel the Bern” in March will have another chance Sunday.

Bernie Sanders, the independent Senator from Vermont and former Democratic presidential candidate, is returning to Charleston for the Protect Our Health Care Rally at the Charleston Civic Center at 3 p.m. Sunday.

The announcement comes after Senate leadership released the legislative language of its version of the American Health Care Act, which turned out to be similar to the House-passed version of the bill, despite some rhetoric pointing to an overhaul.
