ISSUE #3

HEALTHCARE

We believe that healthcare is a human right. Call us crazy, 
but maybe you shouldn’t go bankrupt because you got sick.

1.7M TEXANS ARE EXPECTED

TO LOSE THEIR HEALTHCARE THIS YEAR.

WHERE WE STAND

RISING HEALTHCARE COSTS ARE IMPACTING ALL TEXANS.

Texas healthcare costs are skyrocketing, crushing families with surging premiums and co-pays. Whether you have good private insurance or Medicare, your monthly rates are climbing. Because Texas didn’t expand Medicaid, the uninsured must use expensive emergency rooms, driving up everyone’s bills. Lost subsidies are also knocking people off Affordable Care plans, forcing our premiums even higher. Let’s build a stronger tomorrow with new leadership who will prioritize your healthcare.

WHAT OUR CANDIDATES SAY

"My priorities in the U.S. Senate include lowering healthcare and prescription drug costs. I want to create a federal public health insurance option that competes with private insurance, institute caps on out-of-pocket costs for lifesaving drugs, reinstate the Affordable Care Act (ACA)’s enhanced premium tax credits, increase price transparency and Medicare’s negotiating power to ensure fair pricing, incentivize the development and approvals of generics, and regulate pharmacy benefit managers to ensure they’re not up-charging patients.”
