@RepKatiePorter’s letter makes it clear: the @FTC must #InvestigateInsulinNow b/c corporate collusion to raise insulin prices is killing those whose lives depend on it.

3/ This is urgent.

As @dingeratemybaby shared at the first #InvestigateInsulinNow event, a recent survey from @t1international revealed that over 1/4 of diabetics in the U.S. rationed their insulin in the previous year & cost is a likely barrier.

4/ And @t1international’s Cameron Hall shared his personal experience w/ insulin rationing because of sky-high costs.

His question to the insulin cartel is an important one: why offer programs to those who cannot afford insulin when you could just lower the price?

5/ @Kidfears99 makes it obvious: the @FTC must step in and investigate the insulin cartel.

If they don’t, diabetics’ lives will be at the hands of three greedy corporations.
