Health Care and Public Health
Ann believes health care is a basic human right and that we have a special obligation to protect children, seniors, and those most vulnerable in our community.
Ann supports:
-
mask mandates in schools and indoor events during the COVID pandemic. She also supports Pres. Biden's vaccine mandate and urges every eligible Minnesotan to get vaccinated.
-
Medicare for All as one option available to Minnesotans, so that that everyone has access to affordable, quality health insurance.
-
controlling the cost of insulin and other prescription drugs, because no one should have to ration live-saving medications.
-
affordable and accessible reproductive health services, including safe and legal abortion.
-
the passage of strong, sensible gun laws to reduce gun violence and gun suicide.
-
increased state investment in public health programs, especially those focused on suicide, prescription drug abuse, and community violence prevention.
