Healthcare is a human right. In the wealthiest nation in the world, there is no reason that every American should not have access to quality, affordable healthcare. No family should have to delay care, ration medication, or fear financial ruin simply because someone gets sick. Our healthcare system should be built around the well-being of people, ensuring that every individual can receive the care they need with dignity and peace of mind.

​

Access to healthcare should never be dependent on whether or not you have a job. People change jobs, start businesses, go back to school, care for loved ones, or face unexpected life challenges—and their healthcare should not disappear when those transitions happen. A modern healthcare system must provide stability and security so that coverage follows the person, not the employer.

​

That’s why I support Medicare for All, ensuring universal access to care for every American, while also allowing those who prefer to keep their private options the ability to do so. The goal should be simple: expand access, lower costs, and guarantee that everyone in our country can see a doctor, receive treatment, and live healthier lives without fear of losing coverage. When we commit to healthcare as a right, we strengthen not only individuals and families, but our nation as a whole.
