Deb Haaland on Health Care

	Deb Haaland on Health Care

We need Medicare for All, a national public health insurance

It's time to challenge corporate dominance over our health, and a corporate healthcare system that is inefficient, rocky, and wildly expensive. No American should face bankruptcy, death, or poverty because of a lack of healthcare. We need national public health insurance--Medicare for All--a model that has been proven across the world to lower costs, increase efficiency, and ensure the most people have access to care. Health care is a human right. Source: 2018 NM-1st House campaign website DebForCongress.com , Oct 9, 2018

Fight Big Pharma for cheaper prescription drugs

Q: What actions do you advocate to improve the availability, accessibility and quality of health care?

A: Protect ObamaCare from the Republican attacks. I believe healthcare is a human right, and so I will fight for Medicare for All. It's time to end our overpriced, inefficient, and rocky corporate health care system. I will fight Big Pharma for cheaper prescription drugs. I will work to expand access to women's health care -- including abortion and contraception.

Keep ObamaCare, according to PVS survey.

Haaland opposes the PVS survey question on repealing ObamaCare

Project Vote Smart inferred whether candidates agree or disagree with the statement, 'Health Care: Do you support repealing the 2010 Affordable Care Act ("Obamacare")?' PVS self-description: "The Political Courage Test provides voters with positions on key issues. Historically, candidates have failed to complete our test due to the advice they receive from their advisors and out of fear of negative attack ads."
