MARSHALL (LEARFIELD)- Senator Amy Klobuchar is continuing a push to lower prescription drug costs especially for seniors. Klobuchar goes on to say she is advocating for legislation…
“That requires Medicare to negotiate for less expensive drugs from the drug companies. I think people would be shocked to know that Medicare is banned from negotiating right now, whereas the Veteran’s administration does negotiate this, significantly lower costs for our Veterans, which is great, we should have the same thing with our seniors.”
Klobuchar says U-S consumers pay the highest drug prices in the world. Klobuchar and Senator Tina Smith today joins leaders of A-A-R-P to discuss progress that’s being made in trying to lower costs.
