ICYMI: E&C members pressed HHS Secretary Azar on the Trump budget earlier this week. This sham of a budget includes drastic cuts to both Medicaid and Medicare – putting the health care of millions of people in jeopardy. nytimes.com/2019/03/12/us/…

This week, we began our efforts to reduce prescription drug costs by discussing bills that address barriers generics face. @RepSarbanes discussed the importance of a bill that makes pay-for-delay agreements that result in generics being kept off the market illegal. pic.twitter.com/ERjUZjT4Xw

Every year, more than 10,000 people die from drunk driving crashes. Technology developed by the Driver Alcohol Detection System for Safety (DADSS) program can significantly reduce drunk driving. Watch as @RepDebDingell and @MADDOnline President Helen Witty call for action. pic.twitter.com/WSgykX4Emz

Yesterday marked the 30th anniversary of the World Wide Web, and we celebrated by holding a legislative hearing on the #SavetheNet Act.

The Committee’s initial review has yielded disturbing info about how insurance companies that sell these plans discriminate against people with pre-existing conditions and put consumers at significant financial risk.

It is time for Congress to help make prescription drugs more affordable. One way to achieve this goal is to facilitate greater competition from generic and biosimilar manufacturers. pic.twitter.com/PW7n2kmOXR

A full year later, and we’re still asking @EPA these same questions. American workers are suffering while Trump’s EPA drags its feet on implementing vital chemical protections. Enough.

When the @FCC moved to repeal #netneutrality, more than 8,000 of my constituents reached out to my office to express their concerns. The #SaveTheNet Act will restore these crucial protections, and I’m proud to be an original cosponsor of this important legislation. pic.twitter.com/B8XDvey4ID

Since last June, I have been trying to get an answer to a simple question: What was @HHSGov’s involvement in @TheJusticeDept’s decision to not back the ACA in court? HHS has refused to comply with multiple requests.
Watch as I press @SecAzar on why he hasn't been responsive. pic.twitter.com/EUL1Fdfn52

Trump promised to not cut Medicaid and Medicare, but it was just another lie. The sham #TrumpBudget guts the programs by $1.5 trillion and $500 billion respectively. Health Vice Chairman @GKButterfield took this issue up with @SecAzar at today’s @HHSGov budget hearing. pic.twitter.com/ShWpECHt2Q

Just yesterday @SecAzar proposed illegal, mandatory Medicaid work requirements, but he doesn’t even know if they actually work. People will lose coverage and they will die and the Trump Admin doesn’t care enough to research why. twitter.com/ddiamond/statu…
