In this presidential campaign speech, Tower outlines his views on government-issued national health coverage — Tower is strongly opposed. Tower focuses on the need for individuals to choose their own care providers, expresses fears over the the monetary cost of national health coverage and the potential demise of pluralistic health care, and defends the existing American health care system.
