  • "I believe access to quality, affordable healthcare is a basic right as an American. However, our current system is not what I would classify as affordable, and it’s not working when people—even those with health insurance— delay necessary medical treatment because deductibles are too high, they have no options for co-pays, or they have a pre-existing condition. No one should have to choose between paying for healthcare or paying for other essentials such as groceries or rent. Unfortunately, too many people are having to do just that, and delaying their care is only making them more ill. I’ll work to reform healthcare so that we have a more equitable system that meets the needs of more Arkansans." (www.laurenforarkansas.com)
