US vs Canada Drug Cost

In FL-19, 45% of residents are over 50. Many are retirees who moved to Southwest Florida for the quality of life — but too many are being squeezed by rising healthcare costs, prescription drug prices, and threats to the Medicare they earned through a lifetime of work.

Victor has seen this up close. As a personal injury attorney for over 35 years, he has represented clients navigating a healthcare system that too often prioritizes profits over patients. He has fought insurance companies that deny claims, hospitals that send surprise bills, and a prescription drug market where the same medication costs ten times more here than it does in Canada.

Our seniors deserve better. They paid into Medicare their entire working lives, and they deserve to know it will be there for them — not gutted, not privatized, not used as a bargaining chip in partisan negotiations.

"Our seniors paid into Medicare their entire working lives. They deserve to know it will be there for them — not gutted, not privatized."

"Healthcare isn't a privilege — it's a right. Our seniors and families shouldn't have to choose between medicine and groceries."
