Letter: Support equity for all

Great to see the number of uninsured in America decreasing and the Inflation Reduction Act helping to keep it that way. (“Biden bill to help millions escape higher health care costs,” Associated Press, Aug. 19). With over 26 million (including over 500,000 children) still uninsured, there is more to be done. Let’s be sure we elect people willing to make sure everyone is insured. Asking candidates questions helps us vote wisely. What will you do about the multiple crises in America: housing, hunger, child care, still unaffordable for millions? It is time to vote for candidates who support solving these crises and working for equity for all.
