Jason Crow on Health Care

 

 


Create Health Force to respond to COVID & future emergencies

I introduced a bill to create a "Health Force" that would respond to the COVID-19 pandemic and future public health emergencies. This bill would enable local, county, and state public health departments to hire thousands of workers to conduct contact tracing, administer virus testing, collect data, and provide community-based and home-based services for elderly and immunocompromised individuals. I also introduced the RASPP Act to improve America's pandemic preparedness.

Lower prescription prices; fight for a pubic option

Health care is a right, not a privilege. The Affordable Care Act needs improvement in certain areas, but has covered tens of millions of previously uninsured Americans. We can begin by stabilizing the individual market and lowering prescription drug prices to increase competition and make them more affordable for consumers. I proudly lead the Freedom from Price Gouging Act, which would prevent drug manufacturers from profiting off unreasonable price hikes to help solve these problems. The Affordable Care Act increased coverage so that 90% of Americans can access health care, but we cannot settle for anything less than full coverage for all Americans. That's why I believe that we must not only protect the hard-won gains of the ACA, but also work towards universal health care. I will fight for a public option that will reduce costs and increase choices for consumers.

Keep ObamaCare, according to PVS survey.

Crow 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."
