Issue Position: Healthcare

Issue Position

I am focused on health care solutions that lower your costs at the pharmacy counter, increases transparency, and puts YOU in control of your health care decisions, not the federal government.

Democrats in Congress are proposing massive government takeovers of our health care system with proposals like Medicare for All and pharmaceutical price controls. These policies will force you into a one-size-fits-all, government-run health plan, and restrict your access to new innovative cures.

It's clear our health care system is broken and too expensive, but what is the right answer to fix it? What we need is a free market, competitive, patient-centered health care system. That's why I'm fighting for bills like the Lower Costs, More Cures Act, and policies like Direct Primary Care, which will improve the patient-doctor-relationship that is missing in our health care system.

I understand all too well the experience of being a patient in socialized medicine, both in the military and the VA. When no one is held accountable, and there's no competition, quality of care suffers and prices skyrocket. That's why a single-payer system is not the answer.
