This is big news–but it didn’t just happen by chance.

After our investigation into the outrageously high cost of inhalers in the U.S., Boehringer Ingelheim agreed to reduce the cost of its inhalers to $35, bringing financial relief to Americans who need these inhalers to breathe.
Now the other inhaler companies must follow suit.

BREAKING: Pharma giant Boehringer Ingelheim will bring down the cost of inhalers from $525 to $35 a month for most patients. They’re one of the four major inhaler makers. This move, which could help millions, comes after massive public pressure and a federal lawsuit.

This is big news—but it didn’t just happen by chance.
Democrats in Congress pressed Big Pharma to lower costs.
@POTUS Biden capped the cost of insulin at $35 a month for seniors with diabetes.
Now inhaler costs are coming down.
@GSK, @AstraZeneca, & @TevaUSA need to step up!
THANKS BERNIE!!!
