Friend, Amy reached out earlier to ask you to share your stories about navigating the cost of prescription drugs—and we wanted to make sure you saw her note.
This issue is central to our campaign. When choosing between serving the people he represents or his campaign donors from Big Pharma, Mitch always looks out for the people with money and power.
Your stories will help put the focus back on the people he's supposed to be working for.
If you haven’t shared your story already, you can do so here:

Subject: Looking for your thoughts, friend
Friend, the average Kentuckian spends over $2,000 annually on prescription medications—the second highest out-of-pocket cost in the nation. As I travel our state, I can’t count how many folks—including many seniors—have already shared with me their worry and anguish about the simple cost of maintaining their health and affording their medicine.
This issue is at the core of why I’m running to replace Mitch McConnell in the Senate. I’d like to hear from you, too.
Take our quick, one-question survey now to share your individual story about navigating the cost of prescriptions and how it affects your day-to-day life:

This is a problem we need to solve promptly—and believe it or not, we have the political power to do it tomorrow.
But Mitch has repeatedly blocked solutions to this problem, including legislation that would have allowed Medicare to negotiate lower drug prices and make vital medications more affordable all over this country. The House already passed it, and President Trump told the nation last week he wants to see a bill on his desk.
But as usual, Mitch is prioritizing his big donors over the people of Kentucky. Big Pharma and medical products industries have taken good care of Mitch—sending him $1.5 million in campaign contributions—and they funneled more cash his way in his last election than to any other candidate.
We shouldn’t be surprised that he’s siding with them over us.
Big Pharma knows who to call in favors to in Congress—but when I’m in the Senate, they’ll be getting no traction with me. In Washington, I plan to work for Kentuckians only, not the pharmaceutical or health care industries—because I’m sure you can find a better use for $2,000 a year.
Let’s show Mitch who he’s hurting and how. Share your story of confronting prescription drug costs by taking our one-question survey:
