[1]Lucas Kunce for U.S. Senate

John — our
politicians are allowing a dangerous drug cartel to get away with letting
Americans die. That cartel is called Big Pharma.

[ [link removed] ]On the left, a headline from Business Insider that reads, 'Doctors told
a vocal cord patient he had an 88% chance of cure with treatment. But
because of cancer drug shortages, that may drop to 45%. On the right, a
Kaiser Family Foundation headline that reads, 'Drugmakers are abandoning
cheap generics, and now U.S. cancer patients can't get meds.

In a moment, I’m going to ask you to [ [link removed] ]chip in anything you can toward my
grassroots campaign to defeat Josh Hawley and take back Missouri’s U.S.
Senate seat for the people. But first, will you give me a moment to
explain?

[ [link removed] ]CHIP IN NOW →

In America, just three wholesalers control 90% of drug distribution for
pharmacies.

A handful of giant overseas companies control 80% of our drug supply
chain.

And now, drug shortages are up 30%.

People will die, but Big Pharma will STILL manage to pull in record
profits. That’s what monopoly power looks like.

Meanwhile, the facts are clear: We CAN make these essential drugs in
America and get them to those who need them — but Big Pharma chooses not
to.

To their top executives, record-breaking profits matter more than the drug
shortages that cost Americans their lives and livelihoods.

[ [link removed] ]Report from Washington University in St. Louis which found 30% of the
U.S. pharmaceutical manufacturing sites are at or less than 50%
utilization.

And why haven’t our politicians done anything big about this? Money.

It’s the reason why I don’t take a cent from Big Pharma execs in this
Senate campaign — and the reason why I’m fighting to ban stocks for
members of Congress, including fake “blind” trusts.

[ [link removed] ]A chart from the Center for Responsive Politics and Fair Warning titled
'Megabucks for Lobbying,' which shows pharmaceutical drug producers as one
of the top spenders on lobbying in Washington.

When we cut through the corporate corruption that’s gripping Washington,
there is so much we can achieve for Missouri and our entire country —
creating jobs, getting people the medications they need at a price they
can afford, and building up the American workers and businesses that make
our nation strong.

But it won’t be possible without your help,
John. [ [link removed] ]So please, will you help me take this
fight to the U.S. Senate by adding a donation of $10 or any
amount you think is best toward my campaign today? I don’t take a single
cent from corporate PACs so that when I’m elected, I’ll always work for
real people like you.

I’m not afraid to call these companies out for what they are: A dangerous
cartel that’s exploiting everyday Americans.

When I’m elected to the U.S. Senate, I’ll work to do more than just break
up Big Pharma and make sure Americans can access the life-saving drugs
they need — I’ll fight to see these corrupt corporations prosecuted for
what they've done to us.

And I can promise you this: I’ll fight like hell against any corrupt
politician who gets in my way — in OUR way.

Thanks for hearing me out,

Lucas Kunce
