Key Midterm Strategy: Drug Price Reduction

  • 🎯 Republicans on Capitol Hill are advised to focus on the tremendous drop in drug prices as a key issue heading into the midterms.
  • πŸ“ˆ Trump claims drug prices have been cut by 1,200% to 1,500%, not just 50%, through a policy of favored nations.
  • πŸ’‘ This policy aims to ensure the U.S. pays the same low prices for drugs as other countries, ending a long-standing practice of higher U.S. pricing.
