McCaskill on Health Care

Holley

MO (2012-07-23)

Now that the Affordable Health Care Bill has been found constitutional by the U.S. Supreme Court, Missouri U.S.

Senator Claire McCaskill is calling on lawmakers to accomplish the goals of the bill. She believes the law should be amended if lawmakers find it is not working, but she does not recommend ending it.

Senator McCaskill is concerned that the cost of health care will continue to rise under the current system. She says currently emergency rooms are mandated to care for anyone who doesn't have health care at the expense of taxpayers. She says the goal of the Affordable Health Care Act is to provide affordable, accessible health care for as many Missourians as possible.
