Issue Position: Supporting Access to Healthcare

Issue Position

All Ohioans deserve access to affordable healthcare. The cost of many services and necessary medication, including insulin, is too high for most--including those who have healthcare plans. People should not have put off a house payment, take out a loan, or travel out of the country for medical care that should be available at a reasonable price in the United States. I support reducing prescription drug prices, maintaining Governor Kasich's Medicaid expansion, and providing affordable healthcare for seniors. Meanwhile, the opioid crisis rages on. As we develop a plan to address the crisis on the front end, it is important for us to remember Opioid addiction is a disease, not a choice, on the back end.
