Health Insuring access to affordable and quality health care is a matter of national security for the United States. I believe it is imperative to expand programs such as Medicaid and SCHIP to cover all Americans uninsured here in the United States, and am opposed to increasing the age requirements for Medicaid. In addition, I support providing a true prescription drug benefit to Medicaid, am a cosponsor of the Patients Bill of Rights, and support legislation that helps laid off workers continue coverage of insurance through COBRA. Further, I oppose any form of health care rationing or the use of a voucher-based system of health insurance.
