Today’s announcement of 15 more drugs to be negotiated shows that the Inflation Reduction Act made a critical error that has resulted in pill medications being penalized. This needs to be fixed Senator Mark Kelly @rubengallego. incubatecoalition.org/post/incubate-…

We know Medicare unfortunately only covers screenings for 5 cancers. #MCED Screening Coverage Act was re-introduced and would expand that to dozens by a simple blood test. We hope to count on past supporters like Rep. David Schweikert to pass this legislation. fightcancer.org/releases/legis…

A great article here from a senior economist on why small molecule drugs (aka pill medications) are in danger. I hope leaders like Senator Mark Kelly and Ruben Gallego read these types of thoughtful pieces:  forbes.com/sites/christin…

Good to see that word is getting out on how difficult current policies are for the future of small molecule medications.  We need members like Senator Mark Kelly to see that fixes need to be made for our biotech industry to succeed:  paysonroundup.com/opinion/uninte…

It is rare for group letters like this to have 500+ orgs. signed on. The #MCEDAct is important in fighting cancer.  Thank you Rep. David Schweikert for co-sponsoring and hope we can count on others: Rep. Paul Gosar, DDS Abe Hamadeh Congressman Juan Ciscomani Rep. Eli Crane Rep Andy Biggs preventcancer.org/wp-content/upl…

We’ve been on this issue from the very start when the #IRA was passed.  It would unfairly penalize small molecule drugs, and now the data is backing that up.  We need leaders like Rep. Greg Stanton and Rep. David Schweikert to co-sponsor the #EPICAct to fix this.  weworkforhealth.org/post/new-repor…

Well-written explanation on why we need to fix the “pill penalty” in Congress.  Need folks like Senator Ruben Gallego and Senator Mark Kelly to step up for Arizona’s biotech community. thecentersquare.com/opinion/articl…

ICAN expedites the cancer drug pipeline through patient advocacy, clinical trial awareness, and IDing bottlenecks in drug dev. <5% of patients enroll in clinical trials—we're working to change that by connecting patients w/trials . #CancerAdvocacy #ClinicalTrials #PatientSupport

The #EPIC Act in Congress fixes what is called the “pill penalty”, which has been hurting investment in cures for cancer and mental illness. We hope leaders like Senator Mark Kelly support this important legislation

This is big news for those of us paying attention to what the #IRA has done to the small molecule pipeline.  Please contact leaders like Rep. David Schweikert Greg Stanton and Congressman Juan Ciscomani to tell them to fix this by cosponsoring the #EPICAct.  vitaltransformation.com/wp-content/upl…
