Our Mission


We believe that healthcare is a human right. We support policies that lead to all United States residents having health insurance coverage.  We support policies that expand coverage to include dental and vision  and that reduces co-pays, deductibles, premiums and the cost of prescription drugs.
We believe that Texas should Expand Medicaid as offered to states in the Affordable Care Act.
We believe by educating voters and encouraging their participation in the political process Medicaid expansion can become law in Texas.
