I see your desire to not get political, but healthcare in the US is inherently a very political topic.
Both the democrat and republican "Media" want you to think that voters don't support universal healthcare. One would expect that from the right, but from the left? As I see, every question about healthcare reform during the democratic presidential debate had the right's frame: instead of highlighting the failures of the current system (the cost, the quality, un or underinsured people, personal tragedies due to lack of healthcare), the questions were phrased focusing on mainly the positives ("some people love their current healthcare plan").
This Fox News Voter Analysis shows a surprising number of voters support (Strongly/Somewhat favor 70%) "Changing the health care system so that any American can buy into a government-run health care plan if they want to" See: https://www.foxnews.com/elections/2020/general-results/voter...
I might be too far in my progressive YouTube bubble, but there was definitely pressure to fix it. Very recently, there was tremendous pressure on the progressive members of the Democratic Party to ask for a vote on M4All in exchange to their vote for Pelosi as speaker. You can search for #ForceTheVote on different platforms. Unfortunately, none of the progressives exercised their power, and Pelosi was confirmed.
