Baldwin Joins Amicus Brief Against Big Pharma, In Support of Medicare Negotiating Lower Prescription Drug Costs

Press Release

Date: Sept. 20, 2023
Location: Washington, D.C.

"I've heard from too many Wisconsin seniors who have been forced to ration or forgo the medications they need to stay healthy because of the cost of their prescriptions, all while big drug companies like Merck turn record profits. I was proud to support the Inflation Reduction Act, which finally gave Medicare the power to negotiate for better prices on behalf of the 50 million seniors who rely on the program, and now we must defend that progress. I am proud to stand with my colleagues and the 9 in 10 Americans who support this provision to lower costs for seniors, stand up to big Pharma, and bring some overdue transparency to drug pricing for all Americans."
