Every child. Every checkup. Every time.
Too many families in Arizona delay care or go into debt trying to keep their children healthy. That stops now.
I will introduce the CHRIST Act (Children’s Health Reinvestment in Service and Treatment) to guarantee every child in America access to comprehensive care—without financial barriers.
The CHRIST Act expands the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) to cover every child under 18 with zero out-of-pocket costs and no income cap. This means no more copays, deductibles, or bureaucratic barriers for families—just guaranteed coverage when your child needs it most.
What Will I Do in Congress:
- Pass the CHRIST Act: Guarantee universal, publicly funded healthcare for every American child
- Fully cover services: Including doctor visits, prescriptions, dental, vision, mental health, and urgent care
- Raise pediatrician pay: Increase reimbursement to $250/visit (same rate as private insurance) to strengthen access in underserved areas
- Support rural Arizona: Incentivize providers to open or return to rural clinics
- Reinvest in families, not red tape: Cut out bureaucracy, streamline care, and reduce ER dependency
"How you gonna pay for that?!?!":
- Redirect less than 3% of the Pentagon’s budget, reductions could be absorbed through contract renegotiations or attrition, not pay cuts. O&M impact could be handled by consolidating maintenance contracts or trimming administrative overhead—not readiness
- Close corporate loopholes and implement a modest tax on the largest companies
- Deliver this program with existing CHIP infrastructure—no need to reinvent the wheel

Lowering prescription drug costs
I am committed to advancing legislation that empowers the government to negotiate directly with pharmaceutical companies, ensuring that we can lower prescription drug prices and make healthcare more affordable for all.
I will work towards expanding provisions, like the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA,) that allowed for Government to negotiate directly with Pharmaceutical companies, successfully resulting in a cap on insulin prices [at $35 dollars] and placing a limit on out-of-pocket prescription drug prices for Medicare recipients (to take effect in 2026).
Securing Medicare and Medicaid
Critical programs like Medicare and Medicaid must remain strong and reliable. I will prioritize protecting access to healthcare for our seniors, individuals with disabilities, and low-income families. No one should have to worry about their healthcare coverage, especially when they need it most.
