Another court says no to big drug companies' lawsuits — and yes to lower drug prices for families. The Fifth Circuit just rejected the latest attempt to dismantle Medicare's drug price negotiation program, ruling that drug companies have no constitutional right to charge Medicare whatever price they want

This program is already saving millions of people money — and courts keep agreeing it's here to stay. We'll keep fighting every step of the way so families don't have to choose between affording their prescriptions and paying the bills.

NEW POLL 📊: 94% of voters say Congress and the President must act to lower health care costs, and a new national poll from Families USA shows they're just as fed up with unreasonably high hospital prices.

Key findings from the poll include:
▪️ 94% say it's important for Congress and the President to take action to lower health care costs, including 74% who say it's very important and 20% who say it's fairly or somewhat important.
▪️ 81% say hospital prices are unreasonable compared to just 12% who call them reasonable — a near-consensus view that crosses party lines.
▪️ 60% of voters oppose Medicaid cuts.

The message is clear: Congress must cut costs, not care. Lawmakers should stop gutting the safety net and instead address the real root cause of rising costs — corporate health systems overcharging patients.

CMS's new rule will prohibit Medicaid reimbursement to transition-related care for young people. This is yet another example of this administration ignoring the science and departing from medical expertise. Gender-affirming care is essential health care supported by every major medical institution.

Families USA stands with the trans community and advocacy partners working to protect access to critical care for trans individuals.
