NEW.

Powerful new testimonial TV ad about Sen. Thom Tillis looking out for the drug companies instead of patients & their families

from Patients for Affordable Drugs (@P4ADNOW)

Hear from Steven, himself -->

#NCSen

2 more power ads from @P4ADNOW revealing how Thom Tillis sides with profits of drug companies, not prices for patients.

First, Danielle whose drug prices have skyrocketing and she can't afford house/family if Tillis gets his way.

Second, the story of how Thom Tillis helps the price go up for the most expensive prescription drug.

.@JoeBiden awarded the the Medal of Freedom to @SpeakerPelosi yesterday.

It's the nations highest civilian honor.

On top of all the other parts of her legacy in that distinction, I want to add a tiny one more: She's one of the reasons I'm still alive. 🧵
11 years ago this month, I was diagnosed w/ cancer - salivary duct adenocarcinoma. Been pretty public abt it over the years but less so lately (no real new news).

I was Deputy ED at the DCCC at the time

After I told the Chair & a few others, my phone rang

Pelsoi was calling
She didn't mince words. She had heard the news. Asked for the update and the details.

I told her I was struggling to find the right doctors to figure things out.

She didn't skip a beat. By the next day, she had called to get me seen at in Houston at @MDAndersonNews

Had never worked for or with Blake. I'm not a journalist.

Different perspective.

But, I think I can safely say that I've worked with a lot of them in ~20yrs of my career. Over those years, I've seen all kinds.

Blake was what I still think of as a reporters-reporter.

(1/x)
(2/x) He knew what people would care to read (hard to do) and WHY they should care to read about it (even harder to do).

He'd write/edit/tweet shit that drove me nuts (and wanted hidden from view) and shit that I wish the world could see.

A rare talent. And a good human.
(3/3) Over lunch abt 1 month ago, we argued abt the future of the Democratic Party, nerded out about the latest in ad making, marketing and political tech and still made time to talk about health challenges we'd both dealt with over the years.

Just a devastating loss.

Pssst. Democrats passed an economic plan on Friday that reduces costs for prescription drugs, health insurance premiums & utility bills.

- They beat Pharma so Medicare will be able to negotiate lower drug prices

- They beat oil companies so clean energy will ramp up

Just FYI
"The Inflation Reduction Act represents the most important effort in decades to reform how drug prices are set in the U.S., experts say."

"Clean energy package would be biggest legislative climate investment in US history"
