Derrick Van Orden Delivers for Rural America – Again!
Rural America just scored a historic win and it’s thanks to Republican Derrick Van Orden. The One Big Beautiful Bill, a transformational piece of legislation that delivers $50 billion to support rural hospitals across the country through the Rural Health Transformation Program.
Derrick Van Orden voted for:
- $10 billion in additional funding each year from 2026 through 2030
- A lifeline for rural hospitals that have long been left behind
- Better access to quality care for millions of Americans
- Stronger local economies and more healthcare jobs in rural communities
Before the OBBB, less than 7% of Medicaid hospital spending reached rural hospitals. Now, thanks to Derrick Van Orden’s leadership, that failed status quo is finally being replaced with a bold plan to invest in the communities that need it most.
“While out of touch Democrats turned their backs, Derrick Van Orden stood up and fought for families, seniors, and workers who rely on rural healthcare. This is what real commonsense leadership looks like. Rural America can count on Derrick Van Orden to deliver.” – NRCC Spokesman Zach Bannon
