“Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA), who has previously negotiated a plan to lower prescription drug costs with Finance Committee Chair Ron Wyden (D-OR), admitted during a committee hearing it would likely be hard to pass if his own party regained control of Congress,” Politico reports.
He called on Democrats to pass it now.
Said Grassley: “I think you suggested the difficulty of passing something like in a Republican Congress, so you got an opportunity to do it right now, when Democrats and Republicans can work together to accomplish this. If we want to reduce drug prices, then we need to do it now.”
