Marcy Kaptur: Yes to Naps, No to Rural Hospital Funding

September 5, 2025

A new report calls out Democrat Marcy Kaptur for fearmongering. Instead of standing up for Ohioans who depend on their local hospitals, Kaptur voted against $50 billion in new funding through the Rural Health Transformation Program, a lifeline meant to keep struggling rural hospitals open.

Here’s what Marcy Kaptur rejected:

  • $50 billion to keep rural hospitals open.
  • Support for doctors, nurses, and patients in small towns across America.
  • Relief for communities already facing Medicaid cuts and vanishing healthcare access.
     

“Out of touch Democrat Marcy Kaptur voted to shut the doors on rural hospitals and abandon the families who rely on them. She chose politics over patients, ideology over outcomes, and weakness over leadership and Ohioans won’t forget it.” – NRCC Spokesman Zach Bannon
