James Talarico capped insulin at $25 a month in Texas and got it through a Republican legislature. In the Senate, he'll protect Texans' health insurance and Medicaid, lower prescription drug costs and medical debt, and fight to keep rural hospitals open.
Mark Cuban: When James Talarico and I started talking about healthcare, I said, OK, I just have to ask you a question.
I said when you are elected, will you co-sponsor the Breakup Big Medicine Bill?
James said yes. So here I am — and we are going to break up Big Medicine.
James Talarico: "We are always told we don’t have enough money for schools, healthcare, or veterans, but there’s always enough money to bomb people on the other side of the world. Texans are deeply worried about another forever war instead of focusing on lowering costs for working people."
The fight for affordable health care is personal for James Talarico. In the US Senate, he’ll work to lower prescription drug costs — just like he did in the Texas Legislature.
