Saw this on Facebook today (11/3):
Gonna warn you, going off on a little rant. First off, it passed on 10/10. Here’s the link from Congress.gov:
That means the news is a couple weeks old. So once again, we have someone baiting people, claiming the media is attacking Trump. So, I did a little digging and here are the facts. The bill was S. 2554: Patient Right to Know Drug Prices Act.
This was a Bipartisan sponsored and supported bill that flew through the house and senate.
Did it get media coverage? You bet it did, but with the media cycle and the elections going on, who can remember what you saw last week. Here are the links:
New York Times: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/10/10/us/politics/trump-health-insurance-drug-costs.html
NOW THIS I FIND FUNNY… I even went straight to Fox News, I couldn’t find mention of it there, but here’s FOX 43, WPMT:
If you are going to continue to attack the media – get your facts straight. And this time, thank the Congress for working together to pass a bill with support on both sides of the aisle.
