Healthcare
Senator Duckworth will fight to achieve high-quality, affordable health care for all Americans, and she is willing to work with anyone—regardless of political party—to expand access to health insurance, bring down costs and improve the quality of care for hardworking Illinois families. That means helping develop and advance proposals that protect patients from abusive practices, lower prescription drug costs and guarantee that our nation’s Veterans, children, families and most vulnerable citizens receive the high-quality care every American deserves.
Senator Duckworth will continue to fight on behalf of hardworking Illinoisans to make sure Congress is focused on improving and protecting the health and well-being of all Americans.
