Jeff Kessler for U.S. Senate US Inactive

KESSLER 2026

ad creative

Ad copy

For over a decade, the Affordable Care Act has helped protect families across West Virginia. I helped champion Medicaid expansion here in 2014, and I’ve seen what that means for real people in our communities. Now, that progress is being put at risk. As your senator, I’ll fight to make sure no one in West Virginia is priced out of the care they need.
