Friend,
This week, my colleagues and I wrote a letter to the Biden Administration urging them to propose a public option in the health care marketplace.
The evidence on this is clear: A public option would strengthen the Affordable Care Act by expanding coverage to meet the needs of uninsured Americans and making health care costs more affordable.
Are you with me on this issue? If you agree that we need to lower health care costs for Americans, I hope you’ll add your name to my petition right now to show your support.
Here's what establishing a public option would do:
- Increase competition between plans without compromising access to services.
- Drive down costs of both private and public insurance coverage, particularly in areas with few insurers such as rural counties.
- Address longstanding inequities in our health care system.
Put simply: A public option would promote competition, improve health equity, and guarantee access to stable, low-cost, high-quality health insurance plans nationwide.
It’s just common sense -- that’s why my friend Senator Michael Bennet and I included it in our Medicare-X Choice Act, which expands on the Affordable Care Act and Medicare. Some of the provisions in our legislation were included in the American Rescue Plan, but they’ll expire this year -- passing the Medicare-X Choice Act would make them permanent, helping low- and middle-income Americans pay their health care premiums.
If you’re with me on this important issue, please add your name right now to show your support for low-cost, high-quality health care.
Thank you,
Tim Kaine
