Health Security Express

The Health Security Express is the Clinton/Gore campaign platform focused on issues important to the middle class, such as improving access to home loans, negotiating tough trade laws, improving education and reforming the American Health Care System. Candidate Clinton’s plan to reform the health care system had the support of the majority of the American middle class during the campaign, but President Clinton watched support dwindle until the Health Security Act’s ultimate demise more than a year after taking office. President Clinton acted immediately in the wake of his historic election to put into action his Health Care Reform Initiative. Clinton simultaneously created the Task Force on National Health Care Reform and the White House Health Care Interdepartmental Working Group on January 25, 1993.
