Issue Position: Health Care

Issue Position

We can do more to help Mississippians get the quality health care that they deserve, and that starts with protecting the financial integrity of our Medicaid system and ensuring that it is fiscally sound. We've pushed innovative solutions like "health care zones" to improve coverage across the state. I am also the only candidate in this race who opposes expanding Obamacare and recognizes the disastrous effects it would have on our system long-term. Across the country, liberals are taking a "spend now, solve later" approach to health care: between the socialism that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Bernie Sanders are pushing to the Obamacare expansion being pushed here in Mississippi. I don't believe in sound-bite solutions like "Medicaid-for-All", "Single Payer Health Care", or "Obamacare expansion"--I believe in real, free-market innovations that will make a difference in the long-run.
