Don't Be Too Trusting


What do the following groups have in common?

the Harvey Milk Democratic Club 
the Small Business Action Committee 
the COPS voter guide 
the Coalition for Literacy 
the American Legion of California 
the NAACP of California

Big Pharma has paid each of them—or their leadership—sums of money ranging downward from $210,000 to endorse a NO vote on Proposition 61, the initiative to lower drug prices by allowing state agencies to negotiate in the same way the VA does. 

That’s just a sampling of the folks who need Big Pharma’s help in meeting their budgets. You can find more info at The Intercept.
