According to their website, the ABA’s policy-making House of Delegates today approved a resolution calling for access to quality health care for all Americans, regardless of income. It passed on an overwhelming voice vote, and no one spoke in opposition to the measure.

The ABA has been on record since 1972 as being in favor of universal health care coverage. The measure, Resolution 10A, passed today removes from ABA policy a call for a single payer system, which was passed by the House in 1990.

The measure does not specify what mechanism should be used to provide universal access.
