Jay Williams on Health Care

	Jay Williams on Health Care

Health care is a basic human right

Healthcare is a basic human right. The Affordable Care Act has brought healthcare to millions of Americans, but Sen. Thune is working hard to take that away, without a plan to replace it. Later this year, South Dakota is expected to expand Medicaid, bringing healthcare to 55,000 South Dakotans. This is possible because of federal funds provided through the Affordable Care Act. Jay will work to ensure that all South Dakotans have access to quality, affordable healthcare. Source: 2016 South Dakota Senate campaign web JayWilliams2016.org , Apr 1, 2016
