Americans believe healthcare is the top issue for president-elect Donald Trump to address first when he gets in office, Reuters reported.
Survey respondents were asked what issue Trump should prioritize in his first 100 days as president.
More than one in five Americans—or 21 percent—said that healthcare was the top priority. Another 16 percent said their top issue was jobs, followed by 14 percent of Americans who said immigration was important and 11 percent who said race relations was an issue.
Daphne Saunders, a pollster who named healthcare as the top agenda item, said she lost her employer-subsidized insurance and has been paying $300 per month since that time to manage her diabetes and heart condition. The cheapest plan Daphne could find on the Obamacare exchanges would cost her $450 a month and $50 for every co-pay.
"We can't afford it—that's the problem," she said. "Those premiums should be more manageable. I would expect to pay no more than $100."
