Drug-cost vote illuminating

Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers needs to hear from all her constituents regarding her vote against reducing the cost of prescription drugs. The U.S. has the highest costs in the world.

There is legislation in Congress to lower the cost by buying from other countries or using the bidding process to get the best price. CMR thinks this is bad legislation. I realize she receives large sums of campaign money to fund her re-election, but she needs to be reminded she works for us, not them. There are a lot more of us than them.

CMR means Cathy Must Retire. She does not represent me or a vast number of seniors. Let’s quit being like a flock of sheep and put her out to pasture next year.
