I understand the importance of lowering costs for families at the grocery store, gas station, and pharmacy, ensuring no one in our community struggles to meet their most basic needs. I am committed to taking on corporate price gouging to lower the cost of living and make essentials like groceries, gas, and prescription drugs more affordable. I have been proud to support legislation to lower the price of prescription drugs, make home ownership and rent more affordable, and lower taxes for families with children. In 2022, Congress passed and President Biden signed into law the Inflation Reduction Act, which is already lowering drug prices by allowing Medicare to negotiate fairer prices on behalf of patients, capping out-of-pocket costs for seniors, and penalizing drug companies that raise prices faster than the rate of inflation. I will continue fighting for lower costs on health care and other essential expenses. |
