Arizonans are less likely to enroll in the ACA today because they simply cannot afford it. Why? Congressman Crane and his buddies chose billionaire tax breaks over extending healthcare subsidies.

Healthcare premiums for rural Arizonans are going up. Why? Because Eli Crane and his fellow Republicans let ACA credits expire. This year we will hold him accountable. We will take back Arizona's 2nd.

In just over one week, Arizonans will see their healthcare premiums skyrocket. Why? Because Eli Crane and his buddies chose not to extend ACA premiums. Next November, we will hold him accountable.

Eli Craneās politics arenāt just extremeātheyāre dangerous. He votes against health care, against food assistance, against emergency support, and against the needs of the people heās supposed to represent. Arizonaās 2nd deserves better, and I intend to prove it.

One in three people in our district relies on AHCCCS. Eli Crane voted to slash it without a second thought. Iāll fight to protect healthcare access because no family should lose care to satisfy partisan demands or extremist agendas.
