| Add Your Voice: The Biden Administration should use its "march-in rights" to ensure that when American taxpayers pay to develop a prescription drug, greedy pharmaceutical corporations can't turn around and charge exorbitant fees when we need them. | Pamela, The United States government funds the development of most breakthrough drugs. Then, we license the science to individual drug companies to manufacture and distribute those drugs. But those drug companies have gotten greedy, charging Americans 2-3 times as much as other nations, even though American taxpayers are the ones who took the risk to develop the drugs. The Biden Administration just announced something amazing: They announced plans to use the legal authority granted by Congress to step in and revoke exclusive patents to pharmaceutical corporations that are gouging American consumers. You'd better believe that greedy Pharmaceutical Corporations are working overtime to lobby against this new rule. We need to raise our voices just as loudly to defend this action! Tell the government: We support this action! Thank you, Mike Phelan Progress America |
