Putting America First: Lowering Drug Costs for Every American

Hold Big Pharma Accountable

Casper, Wyoming - As a Republican candidate for the U.S. Senate, I am committed to putting America first and addressing the challenges facing our citizens. In these times of economic uncertainty and inflation, one key area where we can make a tangible difference in the lives of Americans is by tackling the rising costs of prescription drugs. That's why I strongly advocate for lower-cost prescriptions.

In our great nation, the well-being of our citizens should always be our top priority. As inflation continues to impact families across the country, the burden of high prescription drug prices is particularly felt by those who can least afford it. Importing lower-cost prescriptions from Canada is a common-sense solution that aligns with our core Republican values of free-market principles and prioritizing the needs of the American people.

It's disheartening to note that my opponent, John Barrasso, voted against such a measure on in  2017. At a time when Americans were, and still are today, grappling with increasing healthcare costs, Barrasso's decision was a missed opportunity to stand up for the hardworking citizens he represents. Instead of supporting a policy that would have eased the financial burden on American families, he opted to maintain the status quo.

Putting America first also means holding Big Pharma accountable. American innovation and technology have fueled the advancements in healthcare that benefit the entire world. However, it is crucial that Americans receive the benefits of this innovation firsthand. By advocating for policies that promote fair pricing and competition, we can ensure that the fruits of American ingenuity directly benefit the citizens who contribute to its success.

Moreover, this initiative aligns with my commitment to fiscal responsibility. By tapping into the cost efficiencies in the global pharmaceutical market, we can achieve savings for American consumers without relying on burdensome government interventions. It's about creating a win-win scenario where individuals can access the medications they need at a price they can afford, while preserving the principles of free-market competition.

If we are going to save America, we need to elect candidates who prioritize the interests of the American people over the influence of lobbyists. Reid Rasner is that candidate. As your Republican candidate for the U.S. Senate, I am dedicated to championing solutions that prioritize the needs of our citizens, uphold our values, and ensure a brighter, healthier future for every American. Together, let's put America first and make prescription drugs more affordable for all while holding Big Pharma accountable.
