| Val Hoyle supports future measures that would allow Medicare to continue keeping medical costs low through further negotiation on drug prices. | Seniors: About 19 percent of our community are seniors. The Inflation Reduction Act provided crucial relief to seniors by allowing Medicare to negotiate with drug companies over the price of medicine – keeping lifesaving medicine affordable. | Monique DeSpain cannot be relied on to vote for measures like the Inflation Reduction Act that keep drug prices for seniors lower. |
| Val Hoyle can be counted on to protect and support expansion of the Affordable Care Act and other reforms that make healthcare more affordable. | Making Health Care Affordable: There are still too many people without health insurance in our community. In fact, 8 percent of people here are uninsured, more than most other communities. The American Rescue plan expanded the Affordable Care Act (Also called the ACA or Obamacare) that provides access to affordable insurance and protects Americans with pre-existing conditions. | Monique DeSpain cannot be relied on to support legislation that would make healthcare more affordable for Oregon residents. |
