Issue Position: Reforming Health Care for Everyone

Issue Position

The Affordable Care Act (ACA) was supposed to reduce healthcare costs and provide greater healthcare options; it failed. Everyone should have access to affordable health insurance, which is why I supported repealing of the ACA and replacing it with a healthcare system that covers pre-existing conditions, reduces the cost of prescription drugs and allows individuals and their doctors to make healthcare decisions, not insurance companies and the government. I support or sponsored / co-sponsored:

Protecting Pre-Existing Conditions, and making it illegal for insurance companies to increase premiums or deny coverage for a pre-existing condition;
Lowering the Cost of Prescription Drugs and ending "surprise medical bills" by forcing drug company rebates to go to the consumer, not the insurance companies;
Right To Try legislation that allows people suffering from terminal illness the chance to try potentially lifesaving treatments;
Providing Healthcare for Women and Families by providing funding for health centers that provide critical services such as mammograms, cervical and breast cancer screenings, and prenatal and postpartum care; and
"Charlotte's Web Medical Access Act," my bill to ensure that children and individuals with epilepsy and other seizure disorders have access to life-changing Cannabidiol (CBD) Oil, without forcing families to split up / move to another state for access.
