Don’t be fooled: I‑2124 will effectively demolish state’s long-term care insurance

Published by CASCADIA DAILY NEWS on 8/5/24 (Source)

Op-ed by Justin Gill, WSNA president

Long-term care is health care. It’s absolutely essential support for anyone experiencing challenges from a serious injury, illness, disease or aging. I-2124 is going to make getting this care more expensive, sending more families into medical debt and driving health care costs up even further. Nurses are not afraid to speak up for what is right. We ask the public to hear us and stand with us in voting “no” on I-2124.
