Nancy Farmer on Health Care

Give all families same healthcare as the US Senate

With 646,000 uninsured Missourians, Nancy understands the health care crisis. Nancy will fight to give our families access to the same health coverage as Senators have in Washington. Nancy will fight to reform the new Medicare law, which prevents seniors from buying cheap drugs from Canada and prohibits the government from negotiating the best prices. In the Senate, Nancy will make sure that seniors never take a back seat to special interests. Source: Campaign website, nancyfarmerforussenate.com, "Issues" Jul 21, 2004
