Issue Position: Health Care

Issue Position

Everyone should have access to quality, affordable health care. I'm fed up with politicians in Washington playing games with our health care. I'll always put southern New Mexicans first -- that means taking on the pharmaceutical companies to lower the cost of prescription drugs, standing up for our veterans by working to fix the VA, and protecting and strengthening Medicare.

We need an advocate who understands the unique health care needs of rural communities. On the campaign trail, I met an expectant mother who drives hours for each of her prenatal appointments. She'll have to make that same trip once she goes into labor. This isn't right, and that's why, in Congress, I'll work across party lines to expand rural health care access by providing incentives for medical professionals to serve our rural communities.
