Folks,
This is UNACCEPTABLE:
Squawk Box CNBC: BREAKING: Gilead sets pricing for its remdesivir treatment. In the United States, it will cost $520 per dose or about $3,120 for a typical course of treatment, @megtirrell reports.
Amy McGrath via Twitter: "Almost a thousand dollars more than in other developed countries. @GileadSciences, a U.S. company, is price gouging sick Americans. This research was largely funded by U.S. taxpayers, not Gilead. Mitch doesn't care. Unlike the research, he's funded by Big Pharma. #SenatorForSale"
Mitch laid the groundwork for our national crisis by consistently voting to cut funding for the federal agencies responsible for preparing our nation for a pandemic -- then held up coronavirus funding in order to make sure Big Pharma would still be able to gouge prices!
There are now over 3 MILLION confirmed cases of COVID-19 in the US -- but thanks to Mitch, hard-working Americans may not be able to afford life-saving treatment.
The only way to make him pay is to defeat him at the ballot box. Fire Mitch, Save America is the only super PAC dedicated exclusively to helping Democrat Amy McGrath unseat Mitch -- will you chip in to make sure we have the resources to go up against him and his special interest donors?

Enough is enough. We're taking this seat back for the people.
