Blumenthal Urges Immediate Action to Protect Health Coverage

Senator Richard Blumenthal said Americans are facing soaring health-insurance premiums as they prepare for next year’s coverage, with many seeing costs double or triple. He emphasized that families worried about emergency care, cancer treatment, and basic access to insurance are not focused on broader political fights. While reaffirming his support for reproductive rights, Blumenthal said those debates should not derail efforts to secure affordable health coverage. He called for swift action to guarantee Americans can access essential care without risking financial ruin.
