Katie is also canceling two billion dollars in medical debt for one million Arizonans because no family should have to choose between life-saving medical care and putting food on the table. She secured the largest investment in child care since the Great Recession and gave 750,000 Arizona families a tax rebate to put more money back in the pockets of hardworking Arizonans so their family budgets have more room to spend on what matters most to them.
