22 Feb Businesswire: 200+ Demonstrators to Tell U.S. Rep. Scott Peters (D-CA) to Drop His Bill Gutting 340B Drug Discount Program
Posted on February 22, 2018
“A group of more than 200 picketers concerned about an ongoing assault by the pharmaceutical industry on a drug price discount program utilized by many non-profit hospitals and community clinics to help them provide medical care and services to low-income individuals and underserved populations, are expected at a robust demonstration and picket line in front of the district office of San Diego Congressman Scott Peters (D-CA, 52nd District) on Thursday, February 22nd starting at 10:30 AM.
Peters introduced the bill with co-sponsor Congressman Larry Bucshon, M.D., (R-IN, 8th District) in late December with little public notice or input.”
