Healthcare

Every New Mexican should have quality Universal Healthcare. It is our moral obligation to take care of each other. This is the wealthiest country in the world, it is a disgrace that 40 million Americans do not have healthcare. I support a Universal, Single-Payer system of National Health Insurance just like Representative Heather Wilson receives from the tax payer. If it is good enough for Rep. Wilson it is good enough for all New Mexicans. A single payer system puts the choice in the patients hands rather than a HMO or Insurance company. Preventive care is the key element thereby reducing costs in the long term. All Americans deserve a comprehensive and affordable prescription drug benefit plan.

Women’s Issues

  • Equal economic opportunities with equal pay
  • Protect women’s rights to reproductive choice (Constitutionally Protected)
  • Stop violence against women and their dependants (sexual assault and domestic violence)
  • Seniors Issues

    I feel very strongly about our seniors issues. I am a Senior! I will be your Watch Dog in Congress!! I will fight for:

  • Affordable prescription drug plan thru Medicare
  • No privatization of our Social Security or our Medicare
  • Provide long term care
  •
