Dear San Franciscan,
What do House Democrats stand for?
We stand for health care for all and lowering prescription drug prices. We are fighting to increase your pay through strong economic growth by rebuilding America. We are devoted to a corruption-free Washington that works for you - not the wealthy special interests.
We are For the People.
No American should have to choose between their health and their livelihood; their prescription or their dinner. We are committed to taking bold, ambitious action to lower the skyrocketing cost of prescription drug prices. Our strong plan calls for tough new enforcement to crack down on drug price gouging, allowing Medicare Part D to negotiate drug prices and demanding transparency of Big Pharma’s excessive drug price increases.
We stand with the American people to protect the health care of all. That means strengthening the pillars of health and financial security in our nation – Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid. And it means fiercely fighting this Administration’s policies. Their cynical sabotage of our health care is increasing families' premiums, and dragging our nation back to the dark days where predatory insurance companies could freely deny coverage and increase costs for the millions of Americans who have pre-existing conditions.

The verdict is clear: When working families earn more, our economy works for better for everyone. Today’s jobs just don't pay enough to allow hard-working Americans to build a good life for their children or save for retirement.
That’s why we have proposed ambitious new proposals to put more money in Americans’ bank accounts, including a major infrastructure investment program, equal access to high-quality and affordable child care, rules to ensure fair work schedules and smart policies that will grow wages, plus protections for workers to negotiate in the workplace.
A culture of corruption is thriving in Washington. In my view, this Administration's policies are beholden to big polluters, Wall Street, wealthy corporations and Big Pharma that are endangering families’ health, economic security and futures. Americans are tired of endless, broken efforts to "drain the swamp" and dark money from big corporations and wealthy special interests ruling over our democracy.
A Better Deal for Our Democracy would make it easier for Americans to vote, bolster our nation's ethics laws and overhaul our broken campaign finance system. We need to restore dignity to our democracy and give power back to the people.
