With rising costs, increased feelings of isolation, and decades of inaction to address mental health, Americans are reporting stress and anxiety at record-levels. Iâve seen it in my former students, my constituents, and especially in kids. Itâs time for us to end the stigma and do something. Iâm committed to fighting for Medicare For All in Congress â including Mental Health Care for All â because every Vermonter deserves the care, treatment, and help needed to live a happy and healthy life.

As your Member of Congress, I will not overlook or ignore whatâs so clearly in front of us: A record number of kids, teens, and adults reporting feelings of depression and anxiety, and a for-profit health care system that shuts out folks in their greatest time of need. First responders, firefighters, nurses and health care workers are seeing increasing numbers of people in crisis, and these workers also need mental health support. A brighter future is possible â but only if we do the work needed to help ourselves and one another by passing Medicare For All to put comprehensive mental health care in the hands of every person who needs it.

Becca believes the best thoughts are not always from the loudest voices in the room. As President Pro Tem of the Vermont State Senate, she's led the charge to invest in affordable housing, fight climate change, enshrine reproductive freedom into our state's constitution, and so much more. Now, she's running for Congress to have a greater impact on more Vermonters.
