The US House passed a bill this week sponsored by Speaker Nancy Pelosi that would allow the federal government to negotiate lower prices on the most expensive prescription drugs each year.
Nebraska Congressman Adrian Smith says that bill undercut a bipartisan bill that had been moving through the Ways & Means Committee….
Smith says the bill that was passed goes in the wrong direction…
Smith says it is a missed opportunity….
The bill, which passed the House on almost a party line vote has little chance of even being debated in the Senate.
