Support the Affordable Care Act and push states to expand Medicaid. Invest in, uh oh here’s that word again Infrastructure. Support infrastructure for substance abuse treatment. There are not enough beds or trained professionals to do the work.

I dropped off a family member at rehab today. Thankfully, Obamacare will pay for the 30,000 a month tab. What do people and families desperate for help with no insurance do?
We had been calling around for the last 2 weeks to find a program. They all were full and had a wait list. The most well known one in my state had a 4-6 wait. That could be a life and death situation waiting 6 weeks for an open bed.
