Bernie Sanders to Campaign With Hillary Clinton Tomorrow

Two Will Discuss ‘Building an America That Is Stronger Together and an Economy That Works for Everyone, Not Just Those at the Top’

Senator Bernie Sanders will campaign with former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on Tuesday, in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, less than two weeks before the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia is scheduled to begin. 

The two are expected to discuss “building an America that is stronger together and an economy that works for everyone, not just those at the top.”

After Clinton on Saturday released an expanded platform that calls for “universal, quality, affordable health care to everyone in America,” Sen. Sanders praised her actions on a press call, The Hill reports.

“I congratulate Secretary Clinton for this extraordinary initiative,” Sanders said. “It will save lives, ease suffering and it will improve healthcare in America and it will cut healthcare costs. It is a significant step forward as we advance toward the goal of healthcare for all Americans.” 

The Vermont Senator also posted this statement to Twitter:
