Health
Our health care system is in need of repair. Obamacare is unaffordable and unsustainable. Costs are rising while quality and choice of care are diminishing for Michigan families and businesses. Health insurance means little if those with it cannot find a doctor or afford their deductible or copays.
I am focused on preserving protections for patients with pre-existing conditions, providing Americans with more choices, lower costs, and greater flexibility. We will empower patients and doctors, increase choice and reduce costs.
