Issue Position

Debbie believes that if you live in America you have the right to quality healthcare.

As a member of the Subcommittee of Health on the House Committee on Energy and Commerce, Debbie has been one of the strongest advocates in Congress for expanding health care coverage, lowering the sky-high costs of prescription drugs, and making medical research a national priority.

When you go to the doctor you shouldn't be worried about how you are going to pay for it. When you have been prescribed life-saving drugs, you shouldn't have to ration doses just to afford them. That's why Debbie is a Co-Chair of the Medicare for All Caucus and an original co-sponsor of the Medicare for All Act, is fighting to protect pre-existing condition protections gained through the Affordable Care Act, and is working to pass multiple pieces of legislation with colleagues on both sides of the aisle to lower the costs of prescription drugs.
