BALTIMORE, MD — Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders will be rallying in Maryland the first week in December. He plans to attend a "Medicare-for-All" event at Notre Dame on Dec. 6.

The event is billed as rally about universal health care and an opportunity to support gubernatorial hopeful Ben Jealous, a contender for the Democratic nomination in the 2018 election against Gov. Larry Hogan.

Jealous announced in June that if elected governor, he would try to institute a single-payer health care system, according to The Washington Post.
