john,

As a pediatrician, I've seen firsthand how important access to a primary care doctor is for children's well-being. Yet right now, too many American children don't have access to the quality, affordable care they need.

That's why last week, I was proud to introduce the Kids' Access to Primary Care Act in the House. This bipartisan legislation would strengthen Medicaid to provide increased access to primary care for children and their families.

If passed, this bill will ensure Medicaid pays at least the same rate as Medicare. This would mean access to more doctors, shorter waiting periods, and overall increased health care coverage for children and families.

With nearly half of the children in the United States being insured through Medicaid, this bill is critical to ensuring our children receive the care they deserve.

If you're with me in the fight to improve health care access for children, add your name now to become a citizen co-sponsor of my Kids' Access to Primary Care Act >>
