Ed Markey

Health care in this country is too expensive, too complicated, and too often out of reach. Families are grappling with rising costs, coverage gaps, and a system that consistently puts profits ahead of patients.

Whether it’s high premiums, unaffordable prescription drugs, or limited access to preventive and mental health services, too many people are forced to delay or go without care altogether. At the same time, caregivers are under increasing strain, health care workers face burnout and shortages, and public health systems remain underfunded and stretched thin.

Even in Massachusetts—a national leader in health care and medical research—these challenges persist, with stark disparities in access and outcomes driven by income and ZIP code.

Ed is focused on a comprehensive approach. Fighting to build a health care system that truly works for everyone: bringing down costs, expanding access, investing in public health and research, holding corporations accountable, and defending the right to make your own health care decisions.
