Absolutely, I think that what we know for sure is right now it is seniors and Medicare beneficiaries across the country have spoken--they are desperately in need of an oral health care benefit.

To me this seems like an excuse for plans to raise deductibles and increase cost-sharing for patients.

That is why we must take bold action by passing the Lower Drug Costs Now Act, an ambitious plan to lower drug prices and increase transparency in five keyways.

As drug companies continue to raise prices with no end in sight, seniors, taxpayers, workers, and our economy are all footing the bill.

We must act on behalf of people like Azima, a social worker in my home state of Florida who struggles to make monthly copayments for her prescription drugs, which cost more than her rent, electricity, cell phone bill, and car payment…

Pharmaceutical companies are charging Americans prices that are three, four, or in some cases dozens of times higher than what they charge for the exact same drugs they sell in other countries.

Prescription drug prices are out of control. More than $450 billion across the health care system or about $1,100 per person is spent every year.

My Republican colleagues have responded to this proposal with the same tired rhetoric, labeling it a socialist takeover of our healthcare system but the central provisions in this proposal have been endorsed by President Trump himself.

Do something to help with the cost. It is not a selfish thing to want to be well. To want to contribute. All people deserve a chance to be contributing members of society.

They are truly drug dealers, and this is criminal.

We cannot allow them to get richer while Americans across this country risk their health under the weight of unaffordable drug prices.
