2018 OH Governor's race: on Health Care

Mike DeWine: Repeal ObamaCare; add work requirements to Medicare

Richard Cordray (D): Supports ACA. On Medicaid expansion, 700,000 Ohioans have access to health care "who will not have it if it goes away."

Mike DeWine (R): Repeal ACA, believes could still keep pre-existing condition coverage. "Medicaid expansion is financially unsustainable," but would keep for now with added work requirements.

Richard Cordray: Expand Medicaid and ObamaCare

Nan Whaley: Medicaid crucial to helping addicts; don't throw people off

Jim Renacci: Competition & tort reform instead of ObamaCare

While there are several parts of the law that I do support, such as eliminating spending caps on essential benefits, preventing insurers from unjustly cancelling policies, closing the Medicare Part D "doughnut hole," and increasing wellness incentives, the President's health care reform law does not effectively address any of the cost issues that prevent Americans from receiving appropriate health care.

I support health care reform that allows consumers to purchase insurance across state lines, and I believe that tort reform will reduce health care costs further.
