Healthcare
As a cancer survivor, healthcare is personal to me. Healthcare allows each of us to live our best lives. Each individual, community, and state should have the care they deserve to prevent diseases and respond to public health emergencies.
Arizonans, Republicans and Democrats, for decades have supported this premise through the expansion of Medicaid. More than two million Arizonans receive healthcare through Arizona’s Medicaid. Recipients include children, working adults who do not have coverage through their employment, and nearly 80 percent of all older adults in nursing homes.
As your representative, my healthcare plan is clear: protect Arizona's Medicaid expansion, lower the cost of prescription drugs, and increase access to preventative care by fully funding our community health centers. To ensure our system remains strong, I will also invest in educating the next generation of medical professionals who keep our communities healthy.
