HEALTHCARE WITHOUT BARRIERS
Affordable Medicine
No one should be priced out of the medications they need to stay healthy. We will:
Take on Big Pharma to cap the costs of crucial medicines like insulin and inhalers.
Protect seniors and vulnerable adults from prescription price gouging.
Accessible Healthcare
Your ZIP code should never determine if you can get to a doctor. We will:
Fight back against Republican attempts to gut Medicaid and Medicare.
Keep local and rural hospitals open so care is close to home.
Tackle the healthcare workforce shortage that’s leaving communities without enough care.
Healthy Moms & Babies
Michigan’s maternal health crisis demands action, so that every family has a strong start. We will:
Expand programs like Rx Kids that provide direct financial support to pregnant mothers and new parents so they can afford essentials like diapers and formula.
Improve birth outcomes for mothers and infants, particularly in Black and Brown communities, and tackle barriers that contribute to healthcare disparities.

Everyone deserves quality, affordable healthcare — that’s why we’re committed to remove barriers so that all Michiganders can get the quality primary, preventative, and specialized care they need.
