Washington, D.C.—Congressman Tim Walberg (MI-07) today called for action on H.R. 19, the Lower Costs, More Cures Act, and urged Speaker Pelosi to stop politicizing the drug pricing debate with needlessly partisan legislation that has no chance of becoming law. The Lower Costs, More Cures Act, which is co-sponsored by Walberg, is a bipartisan alternative that can pass the Senate and be signed into law by President Trump. Click here to watch Walberg's remarks on the House floor. "We need to act urgently to address the high cost of prescription drugs. Hardworking Michigan families are simply paying too much," said Walberg. "Our legislation has strong bipartisan support and will help make medications more affordable without hindering our ability to develop life-saving cures and treatments. If Speaker Pelosi is serious about getting something to the President's desk, she should stop playing politics with people's health care and we should pass the Lower Costs, More Cures Act immediately."
