Issue Position: Increasing Access to Affordable Healthcare
Issue Position
Issues: Health and Health Care
Many people across the state struggle to afford the healthcare they need. Approximately 250,000 Missourians make too much money to be eligible for Medicaid but too little to afford health insurance. Until Missouri passes Medicaid Expansion, these low-income adults, most of whom are working, will struggle to access healthcare. Plus, Missouri will continue to leave Federal money on the table.
No one plans to have a health crisis, and unexpected medical bills leave many Missourians struggling. As your state representative, I will work to implement policies that will increase access to healthcare throughout the state.
