John,

We know health care is a priority for you and your loved ones, which is why we had to point out U.S. Senate Candidate Roger Marshall’s latest tone-deaf comment on Medicaid expansion in Kansas. 

 

When asked if Medicaid expansion would have made it easier for low-income Kansans to receive affordable health care services during the COVID-19 pandemic, Roger Marshall said: “Medicaid expansion would never have helped.” 

 

 

In reality, Medicaid expansion would benefit over 130,000 of Kansas’s most vulnerable in addition to boosting our rural health care facilities and providing overall financial stability to our state during this public health crisis. Will you stand with Kansas Democrats on this critical issue?

 

But that isn’t all - we compiled a few other stand-outs from Marshall’s out-of-touch health care agenda to showcase Marshall’s priorities when it comes to Kansans and their health care: 

 

• Marshall previously prioritized profit over human lives by arguing that hospitals stood to benefit from the [COVID-19] pandemic due to an increased number of patients.

 

• Marshall has claimed that poor people “just don’t want health care and aren’t going to take care of themselves” to argue against Medicaid expansion. 

 

• Marshall voted against the Affordable Care Act, attempting to rip health insurance from nearly 90,000 Kansans and eliminate pre-existing condition protections for 460,000+ Kansans.

 

Roger Marshall’s health care record is atrocious and it just keeps getting worse. Kansas needs a U.S. Senator who will fight for affordable and reliable health care services - can you chip in $20, $35, or $50 to help us elect a commonsense Democrat into office in November who will prioritize expanding our access to reliable health care?
