Do you believe that all medical debt should be forgiven?
Estimates show that over 100 million Americans currently have medical debt. Medical debt doesn't just cause major stress and dissuade people from seeking the care they need, but it also destroys credit scores. Low credit scores make it even more difficult for those already struggling by creating more barriers to housing and transportation. Families shouldn’t get trapped in a brutal cycle of debt and poverty just because they need medical care.
What’s more, medical debt disproportionately impacts communities of color, parents with young children, people with disabilities, and women. No one should have to choose between their health and financial survival.
Sign the petition now: Cancel all medical debt!
We believe that healthcare is a right, not a privilege. It’s time that our government ensures that no one is burdened by unnecessary debt due to their medical needs.
Thanks for signing,
Democratic Values
