What "Lower Costs"? Not In Health Care — Or Anywhere Else

Rapid Response

Kamala is talking about "lower prices" today — but what "lower prices"?

Prices, of course, are WAY UP amid Kamala's never-ending inflation crisis, but nowhere is that pain felt more than in health care — where Kamala promised affordability and delivered the opposite:

  • Harris-Biden reinstated monopolies on generic drug production, repealed "most favored nation" drug pricing, rescinded President Trump's $35 insulin for low-income Americans (for which Harris-Biden falsely claim credit), and let insurers off the hook over their failure to comply with price transparency.
  • Kamala's tiebreaking vote on the so-called "Inflation Reduction Act" — and subsequent price fixing scheme — has resulted in higher prices and fewer choices for seniors.

Kamala's support for socialized medicine will only exacerbate the costs:

  • Kamala was the first to co-sponsor Bernie Sanders's $32 trillion "Medicare for All" — a socialist takeover of health care that would abolish private health insurance.
  • Kamala supports free, taxpayer-funded health care for millions of illegals (which already costs American taxpayers $451 billion annually in health care and other welfare).

Meanwhile, President Trump has a record of actually delivering lower health care costs for Americans by encouraging innovation. In fact, Obamacare premiums declined three years in a row during President Trump's term as Americans saw prescription drug savingsexpanded choicean end to surprise billing, and so much more.

Kamala will say and do anything to get elected — but she can't run away from her dangerously liberal record.
