Sen. Stabenow joined health care advocates to emphasize Dems health care accomplishments, hit Republicans over putting Big Pharma ahead of Michiganders
LANSING — In case you missed it, the Michigan Democratic Party hosted a press call Friday with United States Senator Debbie Stabenow and health care advocates to celebrate the 58th anniversary of Medicare and Medicaid, uplifting Democratic health care accomplishments while slamming Republicans for trying to gut the popular and life-saving programs.
On the call, Senator Stabenow emphasized how in the decades since Medicare and Medicaid were signed into law, Democrats have continued to fight for more affordable and accessible health care and during the Biden Administration have delivered on lowering costs for Michiganders. She and the other speakers contrasted Democrats’ work with Republicans’ ongoing efforts to put Big Pharma ahead of Michigan families.
The senator also highlighted how Republicans have consistently campaigned on their goals to remove Medicare and Medicaid programs that millions in the state rely on, while Michigan’s congressional delegation has worked with the Biden Administration to protect and expand affordable and accessible health care for all.
