Issues: Health and Health Care
Over the past year, a heated debate over how to reform health care culminated in the signing of the Affordable Care Act by President Obama. Congressman Jackson supported the bill, and believes it should be implemented as passed, so that the promise of health care reform can be fully realized. He also believes that a public option should be considered in the future, and supported such a provision when it was debated in Congress. Beyond individual programs, Congressman Jackson has proposed a constitutional amendment that would guarantee all Americans the right to health care of equal high quality.
