  • 4 Million Latinos Could Lose Health Insurance.
  • Trump Would Repeal Obama’s Reform.
  • Insulin Prices Could Rise.

Kamala Harris’s campaign warns that over 4 million Latinos could lose their health insurance if Donald Trump returns to the presidency.

A report, shared with EFE, outlines the potential impact of Trump’s proposals on the health of Latinos.

During his presidency, Trump repeatedly attempted to repeal Barack Obama’s healthcare reform.

The report states that if Trump regains power, insurers could once again deny coverage to patients with preexisting conditions.

Impact on Healthcare Coverage and Medication Prices for Latinos

This would affect 20% of Latinos, leading them to lose their health coverage.

Additionally, drug prices could increase due to tariffs Donald Trump has proposed on imported goods.

This would particularly affect Hispanics, who already face difficulties affording medications.

The $35 monthly cap on insulin, implemented during Biden’s administration, would also be at risk.

The Latino community, which has a high incidence of diabetes, would be one of the hardest hit.

Kamala Harris has promised that if elected, she will protect access to essential medications like insulin.

Another key issue is abortion rights, which have been restricted or banned in several states following the 2022 Supreme Court ruling.

Trump, who appointed the justices that formed the conservative majority, supports maintaining abortion restrictions.

According to the National Partnership for Women & Families, 6.7 million Latinas live in states with abortion restrictions.

In a recent debate, Trump declined to provide specific details about his healthcare plan but reiterated his intention to replace Obama’s reform.

Kamala Harris, on the other hand, vowed to defend universal access to healthcare.

Healthcare is the second most important issue for Americans, according to a Pew Research Center poll.
