Dear John,

Did you see Max’s recent email? I wanted to make sure you didn’t miss it. GOP lawmakers and Big Pharma have launched a campaign to roll back critical drug pricing reforms that are helping seniors afford their prescription drugs and saving Medicare billions of dollars.

So please, if you haven’t yet signed our Emergency Petition to Congress, take a moment to do it now. And if you have already signed it: Thank you. You’ve taken an important step in ensuring your views are heard at the highest levels of our government. Now please consider making a donation in whatever amount you can afford, so that we can continue our crucial work on Capitol Hill to protect your Medicare benefits and preserve your access to affordable prescription drugs.

Dear John,

Republicans are trying to claw back critical drug pricing reforms that are helping lower prescription drug costs for you and millions of other older Americans.

Right now, there are a number of efforts underway to roll back historic legislation passed in the last Congress that is lowering prescription drug prices for seniors and saving Medicare billions of dollars:

  • The Republican Study Committee released their fiscal year 2024 budget plan that would roll back the “Inflation Reduction Act” that includes among other measures, placing a $2,000 out-of-pocket cap on annual drug costs for Medicare beneficiaries and capping insulin costs for seniors at $35 a month.

  • GOP Senators James Lankford (OK), Mike Lee (UT), Cynthia Lummis (WY) and Marco Rubio (FL) introduced the so-called “Protecting Drug Innovation Act” in the last Congress that would have pulled back the authority over drug prices covered by Medicare.

  • Big Pharma has launched a lawsuit that would restore their ability to charge Americans sky-high prices for lifesaving drugs.

To help us fight efforts by Big Pharma and their allies in Congress to send drug prices sky high, please join with other seniors from your area by SIGNING OUR URGENT PETITION TO CONGRESS TODAY! Your petition will help us put pressure on every member of Congress to reject any bill, amendment or proposal that would force Medicare beneficiaries to pay more for their vital medications.

As you know, high prescription drug prices have forced millions of Medicare beneficiaries to ration doses or skip medications altogether …

That’s what the “Inflation Reduction Act” was intended to address, by allowing Medicare to negotiate drug prices with Big Pharma. Half of Medicare beneficiaries have incomes under $29,000 a year, and 28% of the average senior’s Social Security benefit is consumed by out-of-pocket medical costs.

And so we cannot afford for Big Pharma to win this fight. The fact is, Congress listens to us because they listen to you. So please add your name right now to our urgent Petition to Congress.

Sincerely,

Max Richtman
