Jane Norton on Health Care

Competition is key to lower costs and increased access

• Health care reform must be based on empowering families, individuals, & their doctors, not Washington politicians and bureaucrats.
• Individuals and businesses deserve more choice in their health care options, which promotes competition. I therefore support opening the health care markets across state lines.
• Competition in the health care marketplace is the key to lower costs & increased access.
• No health care reform is complete without tort reform & limits to frivolous lawsuits.

Defund, repeal, & replace federal care with free market.

Repeal any federal health care takeover.

The Club for Growth's "Repeal-It!" Pledge for candidates states, "I hereby pledge to the people of my district/state upon my election to the U.S. House of Representatives/U.S. Senate, to sponsor and support legislation to repeal any federal health care takeover passed in 2010, and replace it with real reforms that lower health care costs without growing government."
