TODAY: Sen. Sarah McBride and Advocates to Highlight How Historic Health Care Investments Included in Democrats’ Budget Legislation Will Impact Delawareans

Wilmington, DE — On September 24th at 10:00 AM ET, Sen. Sarah McBride and local advocates will join Protect Our Care Delaware for a virtual press event to highlight how the efforts of President Biden and Democrats in Congress will lower costs and expand access to health care in Delaware and across the country. 

Expanding access to quality, affordable health care has never been more critical. The pandemic has laid bare the high costs and alarming inequities in our health care system, and it has demonstrated that health care must be a right, not a privilege. President Biden and Democrats in Congress are fighting to make this a reality in DE, by working to include historic health care provisions in their budget reconciliation legislation. 

President Biden’s Build Back Better proposal includes driving down prescription drug prices, expanding Medicare benefits to include vision, dental, and hearing, closing the Medicaid coverage gap, and dramatically lowering the cost of health insurance for millions.

PRESS CALL:

WHO:
State Sen. Sarah McBride
Jan White, health care advocate
Vanessa Adams, health care advocate
