Senator Nelson Responds to PhRMA Lawsuit

Minnesota state Senator Carla Nelson (R-Rochester) today released the following statement in response to the lawsuit filed by PhRMA against the Alec Smith Affordable Insulin Act:

 

“The pharmaceutical industry’s decision to sue in order to stop the Alec Smith Insulin Act is abhorrent! It is particularly cruel to do so on the day the act was to take effect. The Alec Smith Insulin bill will help people afford the medicine they need to just stay alive. I will continue working to make sure people in crisis can always get insulin.”
