Elise led a bipartisan letter to Department of Health and Human Services Director Alex Azar urging him to extend his declaration of a public health emergency for the coronavirus pandemic. The emergency declaration has expanded eligibility for patients to receive routine health care through telehealth care, which allows vulnerable and high-risk patients to avoid in-person visits to hospitals and health centers where they could be exposed to the coronavirus.
Elise for Congress will release a new Result each day through the November 3rd election to highlight the campaign’s laser focus on Real Results for the North Country.
