	"description": "Big Pharma lobbied hard against the Inflation Reduction Act, hoping to kill the provision that allows Medicare to negotiate lower prescription drug prices. Big Pharma lost -- and the American people won. Now, the Biden administration has announced the first ten drugs it’s targeting for lower prices. Pharmaceutical corporations aren’t taking this lying down -- they’ve already launched eight lawsuits opposing the negotiation, and have lobbyists working behind the scenes to weaken the negotiation. Big Pharma is making its voice heard. Now it’s our turn. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) is holding a public comment period to collect information about how high drug prices have impacted people’s lives. Comments at this time not only strengthen CMS’s hand in negotiations with Pharma, but also inform how they proceed with the next round of negotiations. In short, we need your voice, now. Americans pay the highest prices in the world for prescription drugs. And because of a provision in Medicare’s Prescription Drug expansion enacted by George W. Bush, Medicare has been forced to accept whatever price corporations set for medicines, without any pushback. That’s not true for any other insurer -- even the Veterans Administration can use its buying power to negotiate lower prices. Can you send a message to CMS and urge them to get the lowest possible price for these medications?",
