"Ahead of the President's speech on Rx drug pricing, let's remember what candidate Trump promised the American people…"

"He pledged to take on drug companies to help lower Rx drug prices, but he hasn't even come close to doing that. Instead, he lined the pockets of big pharma CEO's with a giant tax break last year."

"President Trump took office 16 months ago and in that time, Rx drug prices have continued to skyrocket. His administration hasn't take one action to help Americans struggling with these high costs."

"Instead, he's continued to side with big pharma companies that price gouge and markup Rx drug prices. If pharma industry executives support your plan to lower Rx drug costs, you're not going to fix anything."

"Every day President Trump waits to take action on Rx drugs adds to the significant financial burden facing Americans and threatens patients' health. We don't need vague speeches, we need action. Right now, he's breaking his promise."
