This candidate voted against H.R. 485, the Protecting Care for All Patients Act, which would prohibit federal health programs from using discriminatory measures known as Quality-Adjusted Life Years (QALYs.) A vote against the bill is a position which would hasten death, since it indicates support for the reduction or elimination of care for people with various disabilities and chronic conditions.
