As a physician, I see this crisis everyday. For many of my patients, it’s either skip a pill or skip a meal.

I believe we can guarantee access to affordable care for every citizen by enacting these essential […]
I support our troops, but not failed policy. We must do whatever it takes to secure our nation and keep hostilities from our shores.
