John,
To the glee of Mitch McConnell, Senator Joe Manchin said right before Christmas that he’s a “no” on the Build Back Better Act.
Now, Axios reports that Manchin is coming back to the negotiating table, “reengaging on the climate and child care provisions in President Biden's Build Back Better agenda.”[1] Nowhere is there a mention of lowering drug prices or expanding Medicare to include hearing care.
That’s unacceptable. Seniors need lower drug prices and expanded Medicare NOW.
We’re turning up the heat on Manchin with our latest mobile billboard ad―demanding he stand with West Virginians and vote to lower drug prices that are killing and bankrupting the American people. Check out our new ad below and pitch in $5 to get this running throughout the state.
Already, our ads have provided West Virginians with a rallying cry to hold their senior senator accountable. We’re driving calls to Manchin’s office and bringing media attention to Manchin’s obstruction.
If Joe Manchin is really concerned about rising out-of-pocket costs, he should vote to allow Medicare to negotiate lower drug prices.
Keep the pressure on Manchin! Pitch in $5 to get our latest mobile billboard ad running throughout West Virginia.
Thanks,
Michael Phelan Social Security Works
