Last week, I went to purchase a replacement inhaler. I was told the
generic inhaler was sold out, and there was a waitlist to get one. So my
option was to purchase a $175 inhaler. My usual copay on the generic
inhaler is $10.

For millions of Americans, a $165 price increase would have put a
replacement inhaler out of reach. Literally, what folks need to live and
breathe is political. The enormous injustice in our healthcare system puts
people’s lives in danger.

Our country needs Medicare for All. Full stop. It is outrageous that we
don’t guarantee access to high-quality, affordable, culturally-competent
healthcare — including critical medication — for every person in our
country.

demanding that our government finally affirms that healthcare is a human
right?

Under our current for-profit system, low-income communities, communities
or color, immigrants, and others continue to experience significant
barriers to care and are disproportionately burdened by negative health
outcomes; meanwhile, costs continue to climb unsustainably. The COVID-19
crisis has made these entrenched disparities and inequities more clear
than ever.

We cannot continue to play politics with people’s lives. No one should
have to choose between groceries and co-pays. No one should need to
mortgage their house to pay their medical bills.

[ [link removed] ]Join me in the fight for Medicare for All today by adding your name and
declaring your support for this life-saving legislation.

Thank you for being a part of our movement for justice and equity.
Together, we will continue to push for real change for our communities.

In solidarity,

Ayanna Pressley
