Another fee means another tax on taxpayers—government overreach at its finest. Let the free market sort this out.

Medicare must protect the vulnerable, not abandon them. This is a step toward justice for long-term care patients.

A short-term fix for a long-term problem; let's hope the GAO study steers us right next. Balance is the key, folks.

Help the pharmacies, but watch that budget—fiscal responsibility isn’t optional. We need care without breaking the bank.

Pharmacy fees aren't a privilege; they're a lifeline. This bill is about prioritizing care over corporate greed.
