Tonight, for the first time, Medicare will finally negotiate with the drug companies to lower the prices. In 2022, I helped pass a bill that finally started to break pharma's grip on Congress.

That doesn't mean the problem is solved, but it's proof the system can be changed when there's the will to do it. (03:36–03:42)
