President Joe Biden today during a major speech on drug pricing reform applauded U.S. Rep. Abigail Spanberger (D-Va.) for being “relentless in making sure” that the 340B statute “is actually enforced.”
Biden and U.S. Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Xavier Becerra were in Culpepper, Va., in Spanberger’s congressional district to speak about the administration’s work to lower prescription drug costs and health care costs. Biden, Becerra, and Spanberger urged passage of Democratic legislation, currently stalled in the U.S. Senate, to give Medicare authority to negotiate drug prices with manufacturers, to cap out of pocket costs on insulin, and to make drug companies give the government rebates when prices paid by Medicare rise faster than the rate of inflation.
