Healthcare
“Many Americans are unable to get the care they need at an affordable price. This problem is especially prevalent in rural communities, including in West Tennessee. As your Congressman, I am focused on expanding access to care through market-based reforms that take control away from federal bureaucrats and give it back to American patients and physicians." – Congressman David Kustoff
