John,

This week, I announced my Lower Prices for All Wisconsinites agenda, starting with the issue I’ve spent my career fighting for: making health care more affordable for every Wisconsin family.

We do the right things — go to school, work hard, raise a family — and one unexpected bill can tip a month into crisis. As a nurse and working mom who’s traveled all 72 counties as Lieutenant Governor, I’ve seen Wisconsin families delay care, skip prescriptions, and choose between child care and better work because costs keep climbing.

My affordability agenda tackles those connected pressures with practical changes to give people real stability and breathing room and delivers:
Expanded access to health care by finishing Medicaid expansion
Lower child care costs
Less expensive prescriptions
Lower property taxes for Wisconsin residents
Affordable and accessible child care for working families

My plan to Lower Health Care Prices as Wisconsin’s Governor:

I will launch BadgerChoice, a Wisconsin public option that will use the state’s bargaining power to lower prescription costs, rein in hospital bills, and expand access to mental health and postpartum care.

I will deliver a Wisconsin Health Care Bill of Rights to permanently protect people with pre-existing conditions, ban surprise billing, end lifetime and annual limits, and strengthen hospital financial assistance.

This is real relief now and a fairer system for the long term. We can build a health care system that is affordable, dependable, and protected, but only if we change the rules that keep driving up costs and putting coverage out of reach.


John, I started a petition to give families across Wisconsin a way to speak together. When thousands from every county sign on, we build the power to win. I want this petition to show that you support affordable health care across Wisconsin — care that gives parents breathing room, helps small businesses employ workers, and keeps people from choosing between medical bills and groceries.

I hope I have your support for my plan to make life less expensive, starting with lowering health care prices. Will you click below to sign on and let me know you’re with me?

Here’s my promise: As Governor I won’t stop fighting until health care works for Wisconsin families.
