Medical Freedom

Recognizing that all bodies have differing medical needs, medical freedom is important to protect. James has regularly stated that politicians are not physicians. He believes that your medical care should be between you and your doctor of choice. Most medical decisions have side effects and therefore only the one receiving care can make these medical decisions.

Vaccinations should not be mandated from the federal level. The federal government should be prohibited from making a sweeping blanket decision. Every person has the right to protect themselves how they best see fit. 

James recognizes Cannabis as a medical alternative that may positively affect some individuals. Having a wide range of use, from chronic pain, to crohn’s disease, to Alzheimer’s (Mayo clinic) cannabis should be a medical option across the United States. Promising to deschedule cannabis so that this is a legal form of medical care in all 50 states is part of James’ agenda as Senator. 

• No Federal ‘one size fits all’ mandates
• De-schedule cannabis on the Federal level
• Eliminate burdensome and unnecessary taxes and regulation on medical device manufacturers
• De-weaponize the patent system to allow more affordable generic options for necessary and life saving drugs
