Tell us why quality, affordable, health coverage matters to you!
 
 

We must protect all of the gains we’ve made in health coverage. Everyone agrees that there is still work to be done to expand affordability and accessibility in our healthcare system. But scrapping all of the progress we’ve made and starting at square one is a terrible idea and would be incredibly damaging to families across the country.

Hard-working people across the U.S. have benefited greatly from this new law through improvements such as:
  • All new insurance plans are required to cover preventive services at no cost—like check-ups, well-child visits, birth control, cancer screenings, and vaccines.
  • People with pre-existing conditions like asthma, cancer, and diabetes can no longer be denied or charged more for coverage.
  • People with chronic illnesses no longer face lifetime caps on their benefits that basically cuts off their coverage when they need it most.
  • Medicaid has improved and now provides coverage to millions more, including hard-working parents.
