Getting Pharma Companies And Insurers To Pick Up Larger Part Of Seniors’ Drugs Costs Is Major Tenet In Senate GOP Plan

Sen. Chuck Grassley, the Iowa Republican who chairs the Senate Finance Committee, spoke about how he wants to proceed with curbing high drug costs. Grassley predicts that the two parties could actually work together on the issue. “What I’ve read that Democrats want to do isn’t a whole lot different than what Republicans want to do,” Grassley said. Meanwhile, House Democratic leadership is facing skepticism from the progressive wing about the leaders' drug pricing plans.
