Healthcare That Works for South Dakota
Too many folks in South Dakota are one emergency away from a financial crisis, or miles away from the care they need. Whether it’s a sick child, a mental health crisis, or a farmer delaying care because the nearest clinic is an hour away, the message is clear: our healthcare system isn’t working for everyone. And in America, especially in South Dakota, we can and must do better.
Healthcare shouldn’t depend on your ZIP code, your job, or your bank account. It should be about taking care of people, period. That means keeping rural hospitals open, expanding access to mental health care, and protecting Medicaid for working families, seniors, and tribal communities. We need real solutions that put people before politics, because healthcare is a right, not a privilege.
