Reps. Sanford Bishop (D-GA-02), Bobby Scott (D-GA-03), Alma Adams (D-NC-12), Jennifer McClellan (D-VA-04), State Sens. Natalie Murdock, Sonya Halpern, State Rep. Spencer Frye, Mayor Deanna Reed Headlined “Lower Costs, Better Care” Bus Tour Events
On the third week of Protect Our Care’s nearly 12,000-mile “Lower Costs, Better Care” bus tour, “Care Force One” made stops in three states to make sure everyone understands that our health care is at stake. During each stop, national and local elected officials, health care advocates, and storytellers sounded the alarm about the threat Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans pose to American health care. MAGA Republicans want us to go back to the days when insurance companies made the rules and could deny people coverage. As Republicans fight to raise costs on working families, deny coverage for pre-existing conditions, and repeal the Inflation Reduction Act and Affordable Care Act, the Biden-Harris administration continues to improve access to quality and affordable health care. Next week, the tour continues in New Mexico, Arizona, and California. Over six weeks, Care Force One will travel to more than 17 states, make more than 50 stops, and travel nearly 12,000 miles.
