"Today, I started new series of floor speeches called "Pharma Fleece Award" to shine light on the outrageous greed of Big Pharma. Drug companies continue to fleece Americans with the skyrocketing cost of Rx drugs, despite selling the same drugs for much less overseas #PharmaFleece"

"For too long, Big Pharma has abused the drug market & their government-granted monopolies for prescription drugs that millions of Americans depend on. #PharmaFleece"

"This starts w Pharma's war on patients w Diabetes. Insulin is one of the most common life-or-death products, 7.5M Americans rely on to survive. Yet in the U.S., diabetics pay 7x more than other countries for the same insulin. How is this possible in the richest country on Earth?"

"The Pharma Fleecing of Insulin must end. We should reward innovation, not greed & create truly competitive free market for drugs. Pharma must be held accountable for their greed & abusive practices. #PharmaFleece"
