Pass universal healthcare. My family — like millions of others — is done waiting while insurance premiums, deductibles, and out-of-pocket costs eat through our paychecks. The average American family spends over $22,000 per year on healthcare coverage and costs. A universal system eliminates premiums entirely and cuts that burden dramatically, putting thousands of dollars back into household budgets every single year.
The United States spends more per person on healthcare than any other wealthy nation, yet tens of millions remain uninsured or underinsured. Studies show a universal system could save the average family roughly $3,000 to $5,000 annually by cutting administrative waste and ending the predatory pricing that private insurers rely on. That's money for rent, groceries, and childcare — not insurance company profits.
Vote yes on universal healthcare legislation. Your constituents are watching, and we will remember who stood with working families and who protected the industry instead.
