2020 SD Senate race: on Health Care


Scyller Borglum: Vote against Medicare for all and "other socialist plans"

I am committed to surrounding myself with experts in healthcare, every day citizens, and other stakeholders to make sure we all have access to the healthcare we need, and are able to afford it.

Daniel Ahlers: System should be affordable, innovative, free enterprise

The health of South Dakotans is critical to the well-being of our state. Investing in preventative care, today, will reduce our health care costs in the future. People should have access to quality health care regardless of geography or financial means. In Washington, I will work to create a healthcare system that is affordable, promotes innovation and respects our free enterprise system.

Scyller Borglum: Oppose Medicare-for-all and replace ObamaCare

If elected to the U.S. Senate, her priorities include pushing big ideas forward while limiting government, opposing Medicare for all and replacing the Affordable Care with a plan that she said she'll announce during her candidacy, and supporting a "commonsense" approach to immigration and President Donald Trump's construction of a wall on the southern U.S. border.
