“It is sad and infuriating to watch Derrick Van Orden bring this snake-oil salesman to the district to try and distract folks from the fact that he has gutted healthcare in America. Representative Van Orden thinks that we don’t understand basic arithmetic; putting $50 billion into a ‘Rural Health Transformation Program’ after cutting $140 billion from rural healthcare doesn’t leave us whole. As a provider myself, I have helped our neighbors navigate the for-profit insurance world that leaves too many of our neighbors behind. I am the only candidate who supports universal healthcare to ensure that every Wisconsinite will receive the care they need; anything short of this will leave our neighbors and especially our rural communities behind.”
