House Passes Historic Prescription Drug Pricing Legislation
The U.S. House today passed historic legislation to bring down prescription drug prices for tens of millions of American seniors. The Inflation Reduction Act, which the Senate passed last weekend after intense negotiations between Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and West Virginia Senator Joe Manchin, now goes to President Biden's desk for signature. It is the most sweeping health care legislation since the enactment of the Affordable Care Act in 2010.
