      We're just 7 days from #ElectionDay, and with coronavirus cases reaching new heights, there's perhaps no bigger issue than public health. We're kicking off a week of #Election2020 🧵s with a closer look at where Biden and Trump stand on health care. 1/Xhttps://19thnews.org/2020/10/biden-trump-election-health-care/ …

      Let's look at the ACA (aka Obamacare): Passed in 2010, the ACA stopped insurance companies from charging more for patients w/pre-existing conditions and banned gender-based price discrimination. https://19thnews.org/2020/10/biden-trump-election-health-care/#aca … 2/Xpic.twitter.com/HVV7aYqmTR

      President Trump campaigned on getting rid of the ACA, but has yet to offer an alternative to the ACA. His administration is arguing to the Supreme Court that the ACA should be struck down entirely. https://19thnews.org/2020/10/biden-trump-election-health-care/#aca … 3/Xpic.twitter.com/wlisCs0fSu

          The U.S. has one of the worst maternal death rates of developed nations — and it's even worse for Black women, who are more than twice as likely to die as White women. ▪️https://19thnews.org/2020/10/biden-trump-election-health-care/#maternal-mortality … ▪️https://www.vox.com/2020/1/30/21113782/pregnancy-deaths-us-maternal-mortality-rate … 5/Xpic.twitter.com/eTp5rxdrqA

          What would Trump do to curb pregnancy-related deaths? The administration has created programs to improve access to ob-gyn care and funded collection of mortality data, but has no explicit plan. https://19thnews.org/2020/10/biden-trump-election-health-care/#maternal-mortality … 6/X

          What would Biden do? The Biden campaign has suggested following an approach that cut California's maternal death rates in half, but has no explicit plan. https://19thnews.org/2020/10/biden-trump-election-health-care/#maternal-mortality … 7/X

          In 2017, women were more likely than men to forego prescriptions because of the price. And last fall, Gallup found women were more likely than men to say they couldn't afford a prescription. https://19thnews.org/2020/10/biden-trump-election-health-care/#drug-prices … 8/Xpic.twitter.com/cj297UtfL7

          What would Trump do to bring down drug prices? The administration approved new generics — but as of 2019, almost half of the drugs approved weren't actually available for sale in the U.S. https://19thnews.org/2020/10/biden-trump-election-health-care/#drug-prices … 9/Xpic.twitter.com/aUPhy5Uyk3

          The administration also issued executive orders to ease drug imports from Canada and lower drug prices for Medicare Part B patients, but neither have taken effect. https://19thnews.org/2020/10/biden-trump-election-health-care/#drug-prices … 10/X

          What would Biden do? He wants Medicare to negotiate for lower prices, to cap drug price increases in Medicare, and to appoint an independent panel to set prices for new drugs. https://19thnews.org/2020/10/biden-trump-election-health-care/#drug-prices … 11/X

          Trump's proposed Medicaid cuts could limit access to mental health care for women who rely on Medicaid AND could make insurance more expensive under an ACA rollback. https://19thnews.org/2020/10/biden-trump-election-health-care/#mental-health … 15/Xpic.twitter.com/pKo80ovgTZ

          Biden has proposed more funding for mental health services and enforcing parity for mental health insurance claims — though he hasn't offered many specifics. https://19thnews.org/2020/10/biden-trump-election-health-care/#mental-health … 16/X

          Finally, perhaps the biggest battleground for women's health will be reproductive health following the confirmation of Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court. https://19thnews.org/2020/10/biden-trump-election-health-care/#reproductive-health … 17/Xpic.twitter.com/VMficZsopk

          Trump has made SCOTUS, scaling back abortion access and exempting employers from ACA-mandated contraception coverage central to his re-election bid. https://19thnews.org/2020/10/biden-trump-election-health-care/#reproductive-health … 18/X

          Most women say they'd be less likely to vote for Trump if he picked a justice who supported overturning Roe V. Wade (most also said they expected it to be overturned if he succeeded). https://19thnews.org/2020/10/biden-trump-election-health-care/#reproductive-health … 19/Xpic.twitter.com/oXTPNeUj31
