John, we didn’t
see your name on our recent petition demanding that Congress stop allowing
price gouging. [ [link removed] ]Can you add your name right now?
Working families shouldn't have to decide between picking up groceries or
their prescriptions. But greedy Big Pharma CEOs continue to raise the
prices of life-saving drugs so they can line the pockets of their
investors and executives.
[ [link removed] ]Congress has the power to stop this deadly price
gouging, John. Add your name to
our petition today to demand that Congress take action to ban price
gouging once and for all.
Thank you for your support,
Team Katie Porter

John,
So far this year, Big Pharma has jacked up the prices of 21 of the 25 most
expensive drugs covered by Medicare. These same drugs cost taxpayers
around $47 BILLION in 2019.
Skyrocketing drug prices cost us all.
[ [link removed] ]Congress must crack down on Big Pharma's price gouging—and Katie is
leading the charge on holding them accountable. Can you add your name to
our petition now, demanding that Congress act and pass Katie’s Freedom
From Price Gouging Act?

Just a few months ago, Katie was questioning a Big Pharma CEO about the
rising cost of his company’s medications. This CEO tried explaining that
the reason his company’s drugs were so expensive was because of "research
and development costs."
One of those company’s most expensive drugs now costs $77,000—a 470
percent increase from when the drug entered the market in 2003. There is
no way that price increase was only being used for "research and
development."
So Katie took out her whiteboard and visual aids to show exactly where
most of the company’s money was really going: directly into the pockets of
investors, shareholders, and executives.
Despite Katie calling out the unethical price gouging of this company,
they are still able to continue these practices—until Congress does
something about it.

Gouging Act so we can stop the deadly practice of price gouging
immediately.
Thank you,
