Roger Marshall Biography

Roger Marshall is one of the most popular and richest Politician who was born on August 9, 1960 in El Dorado, El Dorado, United States. Roger Wayne Marshall (born August 9, 1960) is an American politician and obstetrician serving as the U.S. Representative for Kansas’s 1st congressional district . The district, popularly known as “the Big First,” is a vast and mostly rural district stretching across all or part of 63 counties–nearly half the state’s landmass–and is the seventh-largest district in the nation that does not cover an entire state.

In December 2017, Marshall voted in support of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017.

Marshall supports repealing the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare). Like many other Republicans who want the “health care system to rely on the free market rather than Obamacare’s regulations”, Marshall “measures success in how many people can afford to leave the Medicaid program and enter the private insurance market.” In opposing the Act’s Medicaid expansion, Marshall said in an interview in March 2017, “Just, like, homeless people… I think just morally, spiritually, socially, (some people) just don’t want health care. The Medicaid population, which is [on] a free credit card, as a group, do probably the least preventive medicine and taking care of themselves and eating healthy and exercising. And I’m not judging, I’m just saying socially that’s where they are. So there’s a group of people that even with unlimited access to health care are only going to use the emergency room when their arm is chopped off or when their pneumonia is so bad they get brought [into] the ER.” Those who support Medicaid, say that Marshall did not understand how Kansas Medicaid operates. The program provides “medical coverage for low-income families and disabled Kansans”. Marshall’s remark attracted widespread attention and criticism.

Marshall was sworn into office on January 3, 2017. He is a member of the both the conservative Republican Study Committee and the moderate Republican Main Street Partnership He is also a member of the Congressional Western Caucus.

Marshall is not “convinced” that medical marijuana is safe and provides medicinal benefits. In early 2017, he stated “I’m not convinced yet so I’m going to be very cautious,” regarding the legalization of medical marijuana, “I think there’s a path there, but I just haven’t seen enough scientific data to say it’s a good thing,”

Marshall, who represents a rural district, supports farm subsidies, such as federal crop insurance. Marshall’s support for subsidies gained him the 2016 endorsement of the Kansas Farm Bureau (KFB) in the Republican primary, in which he prevailed over Representative Tim Huelskamp. The KFB opposed Huelskamp’s own opposition to some farm subsidies.

On August 2, 2016, Marshall defeated Huelskamp in the Republican primary, 56 percent to 44 percent. No Democrat even filed to run. However, any Democratic candidate would have faced nearly impossible odds. The district had a Cook Partisan Voting Index of R+24, tied for the 19th-most Republican district in the nation, and the Democrats had only garnered as much as 30 percent of the vote twice since 1992.

Marshall voted in favor of the American Health Care Act of 2017 which would have repealed and replaced the Affordable Care Act.
