Tom Sullivan on Health Care

Stop the worst abuses of the insurance industry

I publicly support the Patient Protection & Affordability Act. I support it because it stops the worst abuses of the insurance industry--denying coverage due to pre-existing condition, rescission, and lifetime benefit caps. I [also] support it because it is efficient, moving dollars away from acute emergency care. Source: Campaign website, www.tomsullivanforsenate.com, "Issues" Jul 21, 2010

Supports government-run healthcare.

Sullivan supports the CC survey question on government-run healthcare

The Christian Coalition voter guide [is] one of the most powerful tools Christians have ever had to impact our society during elections. This simple tool has helped educate tens of millions of citizens across this nation as to where candidates for public office stand on key faith and family issues.

The CC survey summarizes candidate stances on the following topic: "Federal government run health care system"
