"Throughout her career in public service, Lt. Governor Roberts has been a true health care advocate. Elizabeth recognizes the importance and the challenge of ensuring access to quality health care services for all Rhode Islanders, while also controlling health care costs. As lieutenant governor, Elizabeth has been a thoughtful and effective leader in convening diverse stakeholders to address these challenges, and we are confident that she will continue her efforts to improve the health and well being of our state."
~ Linda McDonald,
Registered nurse and president of United Nurses & Allied Practitioners
“I support Elizabeth Roberts because she is authentic and honest. She is clear about her positions, which come from a strong, unwavering sense of the issues and the people they affect. She doesn't tell you what you want to hear. She tells you what she thinks."
~ Wendy Lawton,
Associate Director of Corporate & Foundation Relations, Brown University
“Lt. Governor Roberts and her staff worked hard to close the COBRA [insurance subsidy] loophole for the Colibri workers. It means a great deal to us—it helped a lot of people out. Your number one priority is your health, and who’s going to take care of you if you don't have health insurance?”
~ Michael Masi Sr.,
former employee of the Colibri Group, which shut its doors in 2009
