The move toward unifying the Democratic Party behind former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton continued Saturday.

Clinton, the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, is calling for a large expansion in funds for community health centers, as well as public options for insurance coverage.

The news drew cheers from Clinton’s rival in the primary process, Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., who said the the proposal was developed in conjunction with his campaign.

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

Sanders said he and Clinton were, “coming closer and closer together in trying to address the major issues addressing this country.”
