In Their Words
What they have said, on the record
“I treat patients who can't afford to be sick. It's time NC-10 had someone in Congress who actually gets it.”
“I consider myself a progressive Democrat.”
“So I am a physician associate. I've been a PA for 15 years. I'm a graduate of Wake Forest School of Medicine in Winston-Salem, and I'm also a professor.”
“So our country is just in a time of lawlessness, where the people at the top, who have a lot of money and a lot of power, are able to do pretty much whatever they want. And that's just not acceptable. That's not how we do things in America, and we need to restore the rule of law.”
“I would propose that we have a Medicare for all system. I think health care is a right. It should be free for anybody to seek health care anytime that they have a problem.”
