Issue Position: Health Care for All

Issue Position

Access to affordable healthcare is a right that every man, woman and child should have in Pennsylvania. No resident of our state should fear losing coverage because of preexisting conditions, loss of job, daring to create their own business, or aging off of their parent's insurance. Legislation providing healthcare for all would not just save lives, it would save money.

I support a universal, single-payer system in Pennsylvania that would provide all residents with comprehensive, quality care that would include medical, dental, vision, and mental health care with no co-pays, premiums, and deductions. By streamlining the current system, single-payer - also known as "Medicare for All" - would actually cost the residents of Pennsylvania less, while providing them with more.
