The Bill That Makes Billionaires Richer

The Bill That Makes Billionaires Richer — and the Rest of Us Sicker

Let me tell you what Max Miller voted for.

He voted for their so-called beautiful bill — legislation that decimates rural healthcare in Wayne and Ashland Counties and hits Medina and Cuyahoga Counties hard. Seventy thousand Ohioans are losing Medicaid coverage. Not strangers in some other state. Our neighbors. Our families.

I've spent more than 30 years inside the healthcare system. I've managed Medicaid operations. I know exactly what happens when you pull coverage from 70,000 people. They don't stop getting sick. They stop going to the doctor. They show up in emergency rooms when it's too late. They make impossible choices between medicine and rent. And the cost doesn't disappear — it gets shifted to everyone else.

That's not a theory. That's what I've watched happen for three decades.

Meanwhile, the executives at the top keep making millions. The same bill that cuts your coverage protects their bonuses. I've seen it from the inside. I worked for a not-for-profit insurance company whose CEO made over $12 million — while cutting what your providers get paid. That's the system Max Miller voted to protect.

And here's what makes it worse. Miller can't be bothered to show up. He's missed more than double the votes of the average congressman. He doesn't hold public meetings. He doesn't respond to constituents. I've written him more than once and I get the same form email that doesn't even address what I asked.

That's not representation. That's abandonment.

I'm a nurse. I'm a small business owner. I buy my insurance through the ACA — and my premium tripled. I'm not studying this problem from a briefing book. I'm living it. And I've spent 30 years inside the system that's failing us. I know where the money is going. I know who's taking it.

In Congress, I'll fight to lower prescription drug costs by taking on the executives profiting at our expense. I'll protect and strengthen the ACA so families don't lose coverage. I'll defend rural healthcare so no one in this district has to drive an hour to see a doctor. And

I'll hold insurance companies accountable — because I know exactly how they operate.

Max Miller voted to make billionaires richer and the rest of us sicker. I'm running to stop it.

Let's fix this — together.
