If you are estimating about $15,000 a month, and we are going to put in a $2,000 a year cap, that is just about $167 a month.

You are the reason why we all do what we do.

I am relieved that Congress just passed the Inflation Reduction Act, which will help lower costs for Nevada's seniors.

AARP has been fighting for decades to make prescription drugs more affordable, which is why we pushed so hard for drug pricing provisions in the recently enacted Inflation Reduction Act of 2022.

This new law will do just this, finally, finally allow Medicare to negotiate for the best price of prescription drugs.

Medicare is a sacred promise. It is a promise of guaranteed access to health care after a lifetime of hard work.

I think we all know that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, so by providing these medications, we can keep people healthier, happier.

No one, and especially seniors living on fixed incomes, should have to choose between buying groceries and taking lifesaving medication.

I am so incredibly proud of the work that Nevada Senior Services does to help educate, advocate for seniors.

It will remove stress and burden from providers because you don't want to go in with the disappointing news, so that is going to make your ability to care for patients so much better.

I am so excited to see the improvement in quality of life that our seniors are going to have.

The Inflation Reduction Act, which has just been signed into law last week, will cap out-of-pocket costs at $2,000 per year and cap insulin at $35 per month for people on Medicare, which is a life changing amount for folks like me.

Thank you, Senator Rosen and the congressional Democrats, for working to pass this legislation, which is critical.

This new law will be the first time that Medicare will be allowed to negotiate for lower drug prices in history.

I was proud to be one of the group of Senators that helped draft the key portions of the law, which included critically important digital equity provisions.

We are trying to work with FEMA to get these disasters declared.

Last year, Senator Cornyn and I sent a letter to FEMA asking the agency to address extreme heat as a major disaster.

Mr. Clark had told us that the President had asked him to consider whether he would be willing to replace me as supposedly on a timetable by Monday, the fourth.

I look forward to that report because we want to see Congress can do to continue to provide resources for these core caregiving duties.

We know we are in the midst of a youth mental health crisis worsened by the pandemic.

Building that tech workforce of tomorrow is not only important for our government but for securing our data, cybersecurity.

Improving customer service, again, with the government means not only modernizing these websites but being better able to digitize all of our experiences.

That is why my bipartisan Cyber Ready Workforce Act, which we introduced, would provide grants for registered apprenticeships in cybersecurity.

I think that is really true, and that really leads to my next question about investing in our technology infrastructure.

The issue was the use of the Justice Department. And it’s just so important that the Justice Department adhere to the facts and the law. And so, if the Justice Department gets out of the role that it’s supposed to play, that’s really bad…
