43 Republicans Voted Against Capping Insulin Costs. The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 includes a cap on Medicare patients' costs for insulin—an expensive diabetes medication—at $35 per month. But Democrats had wanted to extend the $35 cap to also include those with private insurance. Sen. Patty Murray, a Democrat from Washington, called the vote "shameful" and said it would force "countless patients to continue rationing their insulin—putting their lives at risk." She added: "Everyone should be able to afford the lifesaving medicine they need." (Newsweek)
Here is the net worth of seven of the wealthiest Republican Senators, who decided that capping Diabetes medication at $35, is too much like socialism. Ya know, Capitalism always saves the day, when your net worth is either in the triple or double digits in the millions!
Rick Scott-Net worth of $259.7 Million, Mitt Romney-Net Worth of $174.5, Million, Mike Braun-Net Worth, of $136 Million, John Hoever-Net Worth of $93 Million, Ron Johnson-Net Worth, $78.5 Million. Not as wealthy but just full of bull sit when it comes to being Pro-Life, are, of course, the motley Republican THUGS, of Rubio/Paul/Cruz/Graham and of course McConnell.
And tell me again, all you folks who are upset with the Dems, how you can justify voting for any or all Republicans!
