Big Pharma spent $100 million and deployed 1,500 lobbyists to try and stop the Inflation Reduction Act. But this time, Big Pharma lost and the American people won.
Because of the Inflation Reduction Act, Medicare is now allowed to negotiate the cost of prescription drugs. This will lower prices for older Americans, and saves taxpayer money—our tax dollars will no longer be spent paying astronomical prices for some of the most commonly needed medications.
But Big Pharma isn’t giving up. They’ve promised to use their power to try and defeat the lawmakers, like Katie, who have called out their BS and advocated for this legislation. Chip in to help Katie keep standing up to Big Pharma.
Katie is proud to reject campaign contributions from corporate PACs, lobbyists, and executives at Big Pharma companies, Big Oil, and Wall Street Banks. She’s one of the few Members of Congress to take this pledge. In fact, in an Oversight hearing where Katie asked a pharmaceutical executive about their skyrocketing prices, one in four of her fellow Oversight Committee members had taken a campaign contribution from that very company.
Pharmaceutical companies have taken advantage of Americans for long enough. Katie will keep standing up to them–even as they threaten to use their money and influence to try and control Congress. Donate today to help fight back.

Katie is running for re-election in California’s 47th district, which includes Irvine and coastal Orange County. This purple district contains an equal number of Democrats and Republicans and is a must-win for Democrats. Consider pitching in today so we have the resources to keep Katie in Congress fighting for working people. |
