The 78-year-old candidate was due to appear at the March For Our Lives Presidential Gun Safety Forum on Wednesday.  The Sanders campaign is also canceling an Iowa TV ad buy scheduled to begin tomorrow.

None of us know when a medical emergency might affect us. And no one should fear going bankrupt if it occurs. Medicare for All!
