Don’t be fooled, vote for Hickenlooper

There are over 300,000 Coloradans with preexisting conditions whose ability to buy insurance without the federal protections established by the Affordable Care Act would be endangered.

Yet Sen. Cory Gardner has voted repeatedly to repeal, block or defund the law, without any viable replacement, and he supports President Trump’s lawsuit to invalidate the ACA in the middle of a pandemic.

John Hickenlooper believes high-quality, affordable health care is a right, not a privilege.

As governor, he expanded Medicaid to an additional 400,000 Coloradans and cut the uninsured rate by almost two-thirds.

Unlike Gardner, he has a plan for a healthier future for all Americans.
