Bill Health Care
Another absolutely crucial investment for
rural communities is health care. At my listening sessions
across the state and at Farm Technology Days, farmers have
repeatedly expressed concerns about lack of health care coverage.
With the support of Agriculture Committee Chairman Tom Harkin
(D-IA), I successfully included a measure that requires the
Government Accountability Office to report to Congress on
the number of uninsured in rural communities, the factors
leading to rural Americans becoming uninsured, and the effect
of lack of insurance on farming families.
