Brown has consistently pushed to repeal the Affordable Care Act, called capping the cost of insulin and allowing Medicare to negotiate for lower drug costs a “big loss for the American people”
In the final 7 days leading up to the November election, we’re highlighting MAGA extremist Sam Brown’s 7 most extreme plans that will harm hardworking Nevadans.
Today, we’re looking at Brown’s support for eliminating the Affordable Care Act, repealing legislation that’s lowering prescription drug costs, and gutting Social Security and Medicare at the expense of hardworking Nevadans.
If Brown had his way, thousands of Nevadans with pre-existing conditions could lose out on critical protections and be forced to pay higher premiums, and companies would be allowed to charge older Americans thousands of dollars more and deny coverage to patients with pre-existing conditions like asthma, diabetes, and cancer. His extreme record includes:
- Repeatedly pushing to repeal the Affordable Care Act, including:
- Saying that the Affordable Care Act was not something to “adopt or support in any way, shape, or form.”
- Making attacking the Affordable Care Act one of the main tenets of his health care policy on current and past campaign websites.
- Proudly supporting Donald Trump, who has long advocated for repealing the Affordable Care Act.
- Calling the legislation to lower prescription drug costs by capping insulin costs at $35 per month for seniors and giving Medicare the power to negotiate for lower prescription drug prices a “big loss for the American people.”
- Getting caught on tape saying he admired an extreme plan that would phase out Social Security and Medicare in five years – calling it a “roadmap for a better America.”
- Explicitly stating his support for a Republican Balanced Budget Amendment that would virtually guarantee huge cuts to Medicare.
- Supporting Senator Rand Paul’s “Penny Plan,” a widely criticized proposal that would drastically cut spending on every government program – including Medicare.
