Despite these wins, there is more that we need to do to reduce exorbitant drug prices for all Americans.

Wow. Well, you know, we must ensure that drug companies do not rely on tricks in order to avoid competition.

The name of the game is volume. The more volume a drug company has with a particular PBM, and the greater the drug company's market share, the better the potential deal that the drug company can offer as an inducement to disfavor rival…

But we also cannot lose sight of the ways that drug companies continue to abuse our intellectual property laws to drive out competition.

Ahead of Trans Day of Visibility, I rise in honor of a community that is being forced to fight for its very existence. I rise in honor of trans voices that deserve to be heard, not silenced and not criminalized. I rise in honor of trans…

But the truth is that MA plans have been overcharging Medicare for years, and the most recent reports suggest they are going to wrack up nearly a trillion dollars in overpayments by 2031.

I have Cities like Brockton, Massachusetts, we have a great mayor there, who is doing a wonderful job, and they are really going in the right direction.

I find great fault with the reckless management on the part of Silicon Valley Bank in that they concentrated so much risk.

Or we can crack down on the abuses and use this money to pay for the dental care that people actually need.
