Issue Position: Healthcare

Issue Position

The healthcare system in America seems to do more harm to families than it does healing them. Healthcare is a human right that everyone should be entitled to. Our current legislators have led the charge nationally to cut cost in Colorado by capping prescription drug costs during the previous legislative session. Democrats capped the cost of insulin and are trying to pass a Colorado public option that will make healthcare access a reality for many of the now uninsured. Continuing to look at ways to regulate more pharmaceutical prices will offer tremendous relief to many and save lives. A true public option healthcare plan, competitive to private insurance will assist in moving our state and nation towards a Universal Healthcare system that has both citizen and bi-partisan support.
