Her Cover All People plan would provide health insurance for the estimated 6% uninsured. Gov. Kate Brown has called on lawmakers to extend health insurance coverage to the estimated 6% of Oregon adults who still do not have it. The Democratic chief executive testified Tuesday, March 16, for House Bill 2164 in the House Health Care Committee. Her proposed budget contains $10 million to cover 2,000 adults. Oregon estimates that 94% of adults and all children have coverage under federal, state or private insurance. The pandemic has taught us this is not good enough, Brown said in her testimony. And unfortunately, our communities of color have paid the price. Gaps in coverage persist, and these gaps are disproportionately borne by communities of color.
