| Janelle Stelson supports future measures that would allow Medicare to continue keeping medical costs low through further negotiation on drug prices. | Seniors: About 17 percent of our community are seniors.

| Janelle Stelson supports ongoing measures to keep the cost of insulin and other health care costs capped for millions of Americans. | Making Insulin Cheaper: Our community struggles with higher than usual rates of diabetes. In fact, 11 percent of people here live with the condition. The Inflation Reduction Act capped the soaring price of insulin, a lifesaving medication for people with diabetes, at $35 a month. | Scott Perry tried to block the Inflation Reduction Act, which capped insulin costs to $35 a month for Medicare recipients. |
