Health care access and affordability, as you point out, go hand in hand.

I support allowing Medicare to negotiate and bring down the cost of prescription drugs.

Capping Drug Costs for Seniors Act, which would cap out of pocket cost of $2,000 per year for people on Medicare--would have made all the difference for my husband and I.

I am also championing the Affordable Insulin Now Act that would cap the cost of insulin for seniors on Medicare.

I am glad to be chairing a field hearing in Georgia today, a first for our State.

I won't stop pushing until we get it done.

I agree with that, which is why I am pushing to get us to be able to negotiate the costs or Medicare to be able to negotiate the cost of prescription drugs, as the VA currently does.

There is long, longstanding and overwhelming bipartisan support among voters for allowing Medicare to negotiate with drug companies for lower prices.

No one should be forced to choose between affording their medication and putting food on the table, but these decisions are all too real for Georgia seniors.

it appears that perhaps we are going to get some movement on allowing Medicare to negotiate prescription drug prices.

What kind of capitalism is that, where you don't get to negotiate the price of something you are buying?

This is why Senator Warnock's Capping Drug Costs For Seniors Act is so critical.
