House Passes Sweeping Bill to Lower Drug Prices
Political Wireby Taegan Goddard

“The House on Thursday passed a sweeping bill aimed at lowering prescription drug prices, a step toward a long-held Democratic goal that was met with sharp Republican resistance,” The Hill reports.

“The bill passed on a largely party-line vote of 230 to 192. The measure, which would allow the government to negotiate lower prices for prescription drugs, is one of House Democrats’ top priorities, and is expected to be touted by vulnerable Democrats up for reelection next year.”
