Lauren Underwood on Health Care

All Americans should have access to affordable health care

Protect ObamaCare, and fix it for lower drug prices

REP.-ELECT LAUREN UNDERWOOD: We have to protect health care for people with pre-existing conditions. It is the most critical issue in this election--

Q: I imagine preexisting conditions was huge in your district. And it was the number one advertised subject. That's the chief promise you believe you made?

UNDERWOOD: Absolutely.

Q: How do you think that's going to get done?

UNDERWOOD: Well, it's going to get done immediately because we can protect the Affordable Care Act and we can fix it. We can stabilize premium prices, we can lower drug prices. But this idea that somehow people with pre-existing conditions might be vulnerable is something that I would never support.

Every family has a right to quality, affordable healthcare

I have a pre-existing condition

Healthcare is a human right
