Issue Position: Expanding Access to Affordable, Quality Healthcare

Issue Position

Date: Jan. 1, 2017

Partisan decision-making has left 400,000 Virginians without access to critical healthcare services that would have been provided under Medicaid expansion in Virginia. As your Delegate, Elizabeth will push for the General Assembly to accept funding for the Medicaid expansion initiative - money that hard-working Virginians have already paid into with their federal tax dollars, that is currently being sent out of state - to offer those critical services to Virginians that are uninsured or underinsured. As a dedicated public servant in the field of human services, Elizabeth has witnessed firsthand the struggles many of these hundreds of thousands of Virginians face because of their inability to access or afford health care services.
