It may be a new year, but Big Pharma is still up to the same antics: raising prices on Americans.
Since January 1st, the prices of over 450 prescription drugs have already been raised—some by as much as 9%.
The high cost of prescription drugs hurts all of us. As a taxpayer, your tax dollars are spent covering what Big Pharma charges Medicare for these prescriptions. Katie’s been advocating that we fix this by allowing Medicare to negotiate drug prices—which would save taxpayers billions. She’s also introduced legislation to stop Big Pharma from price gouging patients.
Still, Big Pharma continues to spend millions on lobbying, hoping they can drown out the voices of families across the country. Katie’s proud to be one of just a few members of Congress who doesn’t take a dime of their money.
That means Katie’s fight against Big Pharma is fully funded by people like you chipping in what you can. Consider supporting her campaign so she can continue to hold Big Pharma accountable and work to lower prices.
Congresswoman Katie Porter is fighting for affordable child care, lower cost prescription drugs, climate action, and a strong, stable, globally competitive economy that works for everyone. She’s standing up to corporate special interests and doesn’t take any money from corporate PACs or lobbyists, so we rely on grassroots supporters like you pitching in when they can. Make a contribution today. |
