INSURANCE

My grandmother cleaned homes and worked as a lunch lady at my high school past the age of retirement so she could afford health care.

Politicians like Mike Lawler don't understand. Lawler took a fortune from drug companies and opposed lower prescription drug costs for seniors.

He would allow insurance companies to discriminate against New Yorkers with pre-existing conditions like cancer and asthma.

I'm Mondaire Jones, and I approve this message because Americans deserve affordable health care.

As appeared online in the Hudson Independent,
August 29, 2024

By Bar­rett Sea­man—

Ask Mondaire Jones and he’ll tell you that Mike Lawler is a MAGA Republican who “never stood up to Donald Trump a day in his life,” someone who would gut the Affordable Care Act, defund Head Start, cut back on veterans’ benefits, Social Security and Medicare—a politician who is “trying to be a moderate on television, but when the cameras are off saying that all of us Democrats ‘hate America.’”
