Nellie Pou puts politics ahead of protecting care

A new report calls out Democrat Nellie Pou for fearmongering. Instead of standing up for New Jerseyans who depend on their local hospitals, Pou 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 Nellie Pou 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 Nellie Pou 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 New Jerseyans won’t forget it.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Maureen O’Toole
