John —
More than 100 million Americans have some kind of medical debt, and North Carolinians aren’t an exception. NC hospitals alone hold an estimated total of more than $4 billion in medical debt — a crushing burden for many families across our state.
All too often, folks have to make the difficult decision to forgo necessary health care because they’re worried about the bills piling up. We’ve got to fix this — and Democrats are ready to step up.
As part of his commitment to ensuring that North Carolinians can access the health care they need and deserve, Gov. Cooper is taking action to urge NC hospitals to potentially relieve $4 billion of debt for low- and middle-income North Carolinians — and prevent such debt from piling up in the future. We’re grateful to have the support of the Biden-Harris administration in this work. Like Roy, Vice President Harris prioritizes relieving the burden of medical debt for Americans.
Our initiative is only possible because of our yearslong efforts to expand Medicaid, a hard-won fight that is paying off for our communities. Over 500,000 North Carolinians have enrolled in Medicaid since the expansion passed, and this debt relief plan will enable even more folks to get the care they need.
John, we need 500 members of this grassroots team to step up NOW and show your support for our work to relieve medical debt! Will your name be on our list? Sign on here >>>
Thanks for showing your support!
Team Cooper
North Carolina is set to be one of the most important swing states in the 2024 elections.
Republicans need to win NC to return Donald Trump to the White House. Meanwhile, Roy is committed to flipping our state blue at the presidential level.
Roy is term-limited and can’t run again this time, and our upcoming gubernatorial election is considered the most competitive gubernatorial contest in the country. Meanwhile, Republicans hold a one-seat supermajority in the state legislature — we MUST break the supermajority to prevent the GOP from enacting their radical agenda in North Carolina.
Join Roy in the fight to elect Democrats at every level of the North Carolina ballot this November. Donate today.
