The following day, on November 3, 2025, he commented on health care affordability in the United States: “America is the only wealthy nation where getting sick can mean going broke.
Republicans’ health care cuts are doubling premiums and handing more power to debt collectors and big corporations.
I am going to keep fighting to put patients over profits.
