Health Care
With 47 million Americans without health care coverage, a comprehensive cure for the health care crisis in America must be a top priority for our elected leaders. Health care reform should begin with these principles in mind:
- Everyone should have access to quality affordable health care, without exclusions or discrimination against those with pre-existing conditions, health status, age, race or ethnicity.
- Coverage should be portable and everyone should have a choice of doctors and other health care providers.
- Reducing waste, improving efficiencies, curbing excess profits, and focusing on preventive care can help rein in health care inflation.
- Until there is a comprehensive solution to the health care crisis, any reform efforts should not undermine those with existing coverage or further punish employers who provide coverage.
