Prescription Drugs
Act quickly - the vote is today!



H.R. 987 is expected to be voted on today. This bill would:
  • bring generic drugs more quickly to the market;
  • limit consumers’ out-of-pocket spending;
  • allow consumers to buy lower-priced medications from Canada, in turn driving down prices for US; drugs due to increased competition;
  • allow Medicare to negotiate directly with drug makers to increase transparency and lower prices;
  • require brand name drugs to lower excessive prices or face direct competition from generic drugs.

Action:

1. Call your Member of Congress and ask them to vote in favor of H.R. 987.

2. Call your Senators and ask them to vote in favor of the corresponding Senate bill, S. 455.
