Sick and vulnerable patients need to be sent medicine; not collection notices.
As a dedicated advocate for universal healthcare and a candidate for the US Congress, I want to share a deeply personal story with you. I've witnessed the devastating impact of not only illnesses like cancer but also the burden of medical debt that follows in its wake. In 1994, my older brother, Stephen, fought a valiant battle against cancer. Before his diagnosis, he was a giant personality. As a single father, he raised an amazing daughter. He even once ran a marathon backwards. Stephen was a force to be reckoned with on the rugby field and a talented photographer. I admired him. But, cancer didn't care. He died at 42. I've witnessed firsthand the financial strain cancer patients like him endure. It's heartbreaking every time — watching someone's beloved family member suffer both physically and emotionally, all-the-while grappling with mounting medical bills. I needed to take action. So, throughout my career, I dedicated my life of service to vulnerable, low income patients like my brother. And, just last year, I drafted — and successfully passed — a resolution with the Michigan Democratic Party to address the pressing issue of medical debt.
We must alleviate the financial burden on families and individuals, ensuring that they can focus on healing and recovery instead of worrying about bankruptcy. Over 40% of cancer patients deplete their funds in just two years. I am committed to fighting for a publicly financed, national, non-profit health insurance program, and wiping out medical debt. We must provide full coverage for medical expenses for all American citizens. Together, we can ensure that no family has to choose between their health and financial stability ever again. I want to be the first family physician in Congress to help pass comprehensive healthcare reform. We need a doctor in the House. When elected, I will lead Congress on this issue. I cannot achieve this alone. , I need your support. By making a contribution to our campaign, you will help us reach more voters, raise awareness about the urgent need for healthcare reform, and provide hope to countless individuals burdened by medical debt. Together, we can transform lives and build a healthier, more compassionate nation. I know my brother would be proud of our efforts. It's for him, his family, and millions of cancer patients like him that our battle endures. Join our fight. -Dr. Bob Bob Lorinser Candidate for Congress Northern Michigan and the UP Proud Democrat, MI01
