ID theft fraud remains the top type of scam targeting Nevadans.

Scams cost Nevadans nearly $36 million in 2020 alone.

Transparency and accountability, I guess those are the words of the day, because we know that social media companies, of course, what we do.

Finally, cap prescription drug price increases to no greater than the rate of inflation.

Finally cap seniors' Part D out of pocket spending at $2,000 per year.

We are going to ensure that all seniors receive all their vaccines at $0 cost sharing, free, free.

I am proud again to say that Democrats in Congress, well, we have been listening to Nevadans and to the American people.

Finally, cap seniors' insulin costs at $35 per month.

Well, and you have a partner in me, and I know that you have a partner with everyone here, and of course, the rest of the Democratic Federal delegation.

In a country as prosperous as ours, we should do better. We should always do better, especially for our seniors.

We can and we must do better, and now, thanks to action in Congress, we are going to do better.

Mr. Kline, all these vaccinations are going to be free, so how are you going to be sure that you get the word out to all the seniors, even more working with your partner agencies, every senior in Nevada that who wants one can get one free…

This new law will bring relief to seniors by lowering their expensive drug costs.

We want to keep them from moving, if we can, to a nursing home or some of those, and keep them either independent or with their family where it is much better.

It gives you a boost. It tells you that there is an opportunity to impact it.

No senior should be forced to choose between paying for life saving medication or keeping their lights on.

That is fantastic. You are going to get the last question because speaking of advocacy, AARP, really, you are the big umbrella organization looking at all of these things, and so how are you going to help everyone here today be sure that…

That seems like this great overall comprehensive project and group, and I think that is what gives you so much success.

Nevada senior population is growing so quickly.

I am grateful for the AARP partnership. Those e-mails helped, and those letters and those calls and all the conversations we had.

If you are able to be healthier because you are able to take your medications, you are going to be a more productive member of society.

Thank you. Mr. Klein, I know you work with so many seniors and you are going to be able to maybe put some of your financial resources or some of the magic that you do to help those thousands of seniors every year.

The cost of insulin will be capped at $35 a month for Medicare beneficiaries

I have one more question for you. Well, we have a bunch more to go through, but I was a caregiver for my parents and in-laws as they aged, so I understand that aspect, but have you seen the high cost of prescription drugs?

Medicare is finally, finally going to be able to use its purchasing power to deliver those lower costs for seniors.
