Hi Friend, Yesterday, Congresswoman Titus was joined by some of our IPN storytellers to speak about the struggles that Nevadans have to face when it comes to prescription drug prices yesterday on KNPR’s State of Nevada. You can tune in here to listen to the full interview. Today we also celebrate the 12 year anniversary of the Affordable Care Act! Our Executive Director Annette Magnus said today, “In these 12 years we have been able to see 30 million people get covered by obtaining private health insurance or by enrolling in Medicaid. No one should be denied healthcare due to it being unaffordable.” Thanks to the American Rescue Plan, the ACA has been able to provide even more Nevadans with care! Here is how we have been able to expand:
Unfortunately, as corporations gouge Americans on other goods, prescription drug prices also continue to rise, leaving many Nevada’s in a tough place. No one should have to choose between paying for their rent and bills or a life-saving prescription. Just as we were able to pass the Affordable Care Act, we must urge our leaders to continue taking action to lower the costs of prescription drugs as our next big step to address healthcare. Too many Americans continue to struggle to be able to pay for their prescriptions and it’s time for Congress to cap the costs of prescription drugs. If you or anyone you know struggles with prescription drug prices, contact us. We want to hear from YOU so that you can make your voice heard on these critical issues! In Solidarity,
