Yesterday, I asked Big Pharma CEO Richard Gonzales to name the Nobel
Laureate who invented the key molecule in his company’s highest-grossing
drug, Humira.

He couldn’t — despite claiming over and over to care about innovation.
Obviously “innovation” isn’t the real reason for Humira’s frequent price
hikes, which mostly go towards lavish executive bonuses and enriching
wealthy shareholders.

Saying NO to corporate PAC money is why I can ask hard-hitting and
revealing questions to powerful CEOs like Richard Gonzales.

you’re able, can you chip in now so I can keep asking the hard questions
and providing real oversight of anticompetitive industries like Big
Pharma?

Humira is now priced at $2,984 per syringe, or $77,586 annually — a 470%
increase from when the drug entered the market.

There’s no justification, despite Big Pharma CEOs who blow their horns
about the importance of research and development. Medical advancements are
vital, it’s true — but scientists like Greg Winter (that’s the inventor’s
name, by the way!) aren’t raking in hundreds of millions. Big shot
executives like Richard Gonzales are, by spiking our drug costs to
unsustainable levels.

This fight isn’t over, so I’m asking: [ [link removed] ]Can you support our grassroots
movement so I can keep speaking up for the interests of workers and
families, not Big Pharma and Wall Street? Even a $5 donation makes a big
difference if we all pitch in.

Thank you for your support,

Ro
