“BIO is extremely encouraged by the broad bipartisan votes yesterday by the Senate Health Committee to advance components of the Senate Innovation Initiative,” said BIO President and CEO Jim Greenwood. “We applaud Chairman Alexander and Ranking Member Murray for working towards final passage of these bills to improve the US healthcare system and encourage increased investment in medical innovation. We hope that these bills and others being considered by the Committee as part of this initiative will continue to enjoy broad bipartisan support.
