"description": "During his March 1 State of the Union address, President Joe Biden called for a $35 price cap on the cost of insulin. Join us in urging your Senators and Representatives to pass the Affordable Insulin Now Act so that people with diabetes can get the medicine they need to survive. This essential piece of legislation would require Medicare plans and private insurance plans to cap patients' out-of-pocket costs for insulin at $35 per month. The $35 price cap would increase access to diabetes care for millions on Medicare and private insurance plans. Join us and tell Congress to support this legislation. “Imagine what it’s like to look at your child who needs insulin and have no idea how you’re going to pay for it,” Biden said during his speech. We have heard countless and unconscionable stories about the dangers of rationing insulin, yet one in four people in the US with diabetes have been forced to ration their insulin due to the unaffordable price. No person should ever feel the need to restrict their use of a drug that people with diabetes cannot manage to miss a single dose. You can help people with diabetes get the insulin that they need to survive. Join us in advocating for affordable insulin for people with diabetes. Urge Congress to support this legislation.",
