John,
Last night, the Senate came one huge step closer to reining in Big Pharma’s greed when Majority Leader Schumer announced he had a deal with Senator Joe Manchin on Democrats’ revenue and investment package.
If passed, Medicare will be able to negotiate lower drug prices, and people with Medicare will have their out-of-pocket prescription drug costs capped at $2,000 annually. This means that millions of seniors will be able to keep more of their monthly Social Security checks instead of handing them over to Big Pharma.
But we can’t take anything for granted. Until this passes, we must keep fighting!
With the Senate expected to vote next week, sign the petition today and tell Democrats to lower prescription drug prices now.
We’re on the verge of a major victory. Thank you for all you do to hold Big Pharma accountable and lower costs for millions of Americans.

John,
Democrats are on the verge of lowering prescription drug prices. But Republicans are working hand in hand with Big Pharma to try to block the bill and keep drug prices high.
Republicans are bragging about using arcane Senate rules to try and kill the bill. To stop them, we need to ensure zero corporate Democrats defect in the 11th hour.
Sign now: Tell Democrats to stand united against Republicans and Big Pharma by passing their bill to lower prescription drug prices!
More than one-third of the average Social Security check is already consumed by medical costs, with medication being the biggest chunk. Every new round of Big Pharma price gouging is a de facto cut to Social Security benefits. This is our chance to stop it.
Big Pharma is spending massive amounts of money to keep drug prices high. Together, let’s ensure that our voices drown out the relentless attack from Big Pharma’s lobbyists.
Tell Democrats: Stand united to lower prescription drug prices now!
This is a moment when members of Congress need to hear from millions of Americans, reminding them that they work for us — and that we demand lower drug prices!
In solidarity,
Alex Lawson Social Security Works
