Legislation supported by Center for Medicare Advocacy, Patients for Affordable Drugs Now, Families USA, Consumer Reports, and Public Citizen.
In a statement released today, U.S. Senators Richard Blumenthal (D-CT), Kamala Harris (D-CA), Jeff Merkley (D-OR), and Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) announced the introduction of the Curbing Unreasonable Rises and Excessively (CURE) High Drug Prices Act “to prohibit unjustified drug price increases and give the Department of Health and Human Services authority to block such increases and reimburse consumers who were harmed.” This would be an important assist, particularly for individuals in need of multiple medications.
