Families of those in assisted living facilities deserve the peace of mind that their loved ones are being taken care of. Next week, we'll hold a hearing on the ongoing crises in assisted living facilities, including a lack of staffing, oversight & transparency, and quality care.

Join me live for my Senate Aging Committee Committee hearing where I will address lowering health care costs for Americans along with my new bill, the ‘Capping Prescription Costs Act’ youtube.com/live/OSZY-GBjl…

I just introduced a new bill to cap out-of-pocket prescription drug costs for millions of Americans. Working families shouldn’t have to strain their budgets just to afford essential medications.
