It's completely absurd that the American people pay more for the exact same prescription drugs than people do in any other major country. It's time to pass Sen. Bernie Sanders and Ro Khanna's Prescription Drug Price Relief Act to rein in the greed of the pharmaceutical industry.

#LegalizeIt, and demand justice for communities ravaged by the War on Drugs.

Republicans would like you to believe that Steve King is an outlier. But the truth is... Trump and his base's obsession w/ a useless border wall is the result of a constant, decades-long drumbeat of the same xenophobia in Republican messaging & policy that Steve King promotes.
