[ [link removed] ]Katie Porter for Congress

John,

When Katie was running in her first campaign, her appendix burst. She
headed to Hoag hospital—knowing it was in network for her insurance. When
she left, she had a $250 copayment and thought her insurance covered the
rest.

A few weeks later, Katie received a bill for $3,231—it turned out the
surgeon who performed her surgery was not in her insurance’s network. For
too many Americans, this story is all too familiar.

Katie was fortunate to have insurance that covered much of the cost of her
hospital stay, which ended up being over $50,000. But for many families
both with and without health insurance, a case of appendicitis could cause
serious financial hardship.

This experience reiterated for Katie how important it is to lower the cost
of healthcare and prescription drugs. That’s why she’s standing up to Big
Pharma and Big Insurance as they drive up prices.

Katie’s leading the fight to let Medicare negotiate drug prices, to stop
Big Pharma from price gouging life saving drugs, and to make healthcare
accessible and affordable for all. [ [link removed] ]Make a contribution today to support
