Voted to cut Medicaid by billions and said he was “very proud” of voting for Medicaid cuts.

GOP proposed cuts would affect over two million Georgians who rely on Medicaid and CHIP.

Pledged to repeal the Affordable Care Act entirely.

Repealing the ACA would eliminate pre-existing condition protections for 1.8 million Georgians.

Called Medicare drug price negotiation to lower prices for patients the “worst legislation” he’s seen.

Backed Trump’s disastrous tariff policies, which hurt Georgia’s economy and farmers.

Refused to rule out cuts to Medicare and Social Security, saying “it’s something the GOP budget committee is going to be looking at.”

Contributed to the opioid epidemic and, as owner of Carter Pharmacy, oversaw distribution of 2.8 million opioid pills in Chatham County.

Georgia’s opioid crisis has worsened since 2010 due to over-prescription.

Took major donations from opioid distributors like McKesson even after leaving the business.

Longtime advocate for Big Pharma’s top priorities.

Accepted travel and speaking fees from Big Pharma PACs while in Congress.
