Protect coverage for Texans with pre-existing conditions

Cornyn cosponsored the PROTECT Act to protect Texans with pre-existing conditions from being denied health coverage or charged more because of those conditions. More broadly, he says he has supported health legislation intended to protect people with pre-existing conditions while lowering costs and increasing options for lower-premium insurance plans.

Context: The source does not specify how the PROTECT Act would implement these protections or establish that this was a future campaign commitment.

In their own words

protect Texans with pre-existing conditions and ensure they will never be denied health care coverage or be charged more because of a pre-existing condition.
