US Politics
Senator Kyrsten Sinema (D) Arizona

What does Kyrsten Sinema want? Is it all about the people (business interests) that fund her campaigns?

What does Kyrsten Sinema want?

Peter,

Throughout negotiations over the Build Back Better Act, which could expand Medicare, lower prescription drug prices, shore up home and community-based care for seniors and people with disabilities, expand the Child Tax Credit, and make meaningful investments fighting the climate crisis, two Senators have made clear that they would challenge final passage.

But Senators Joe Manchin (D-WV) and Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ) are not aligned. While President Biden needs both of their votes for the final package, they’re not a bloc.

Politico headline: Sinema tells White House she's opposed to current prescription drug plan

Big Pharma’s business model depends on forcing the American people to pay the highest prices in the world for drugs that were developed with our taxpayer dollars. No wonder they’re spending big to defeat it! Health care industry lobbyists are mobbing Senator Sinema, working to sink the whole package.

We need to make sure that Arizonans know where Senator Sinema stands. So we’re still running our billboard truck in Arizona. Can you chip in to keep it on the road?

This is what people will see:


Image of our billboard, with text Senator Sinema is working to keep your drug prices high. She is trying to block President Biden's effort to lower drug prices in the Build Back Better package. Call her at 602-598-7327 and remind her she works for the people of Arizona, not Big Pharma

Donate today to keep our billboard truck on the road, so that Arizonans can stand up and demand that Senator Sinema serve them, not corporate pharma lobbyists!

Thanks,

Michael Phelan Social Security Works
