Folks,
This is OUTRAGEOUS:
NPR: COVID-19 drug Remdesivir priced at more than $3,100 per patient
A new coronavirus treatment only costs an estimated 93 cents to produce per dose -- but Americans will be paying over $700 more than patients in other developed countries for the exact same treatment.
That's because Mitch McConnell held up coronavirus relief legislation to ensure his wealthy donors could profit off the pandemic -- he's got a long history of helping Big Pharma at our expense:
"McConnell took over $1 million from the big drug companies and then blocked efforts to reduce prescription drug prices, including lower drug prices for seniors. #SenatorForSale" - Amy McGrath via Twitter
American taxpayers invested $99 million to help develop a life-saving drug that will now be out of reach for thousands. Enough is enough -- chip in to Fire Mitch, Save America so that we can help Democrat Amy McGrath kick him out of Washington for good >>

It's time to turn our anger into ACTION.
-- Fire Mitch, Save America
