CSBA Sends Letter to Congressional Leadership on Negative Impacts of Democrats' Drug Pricing Proposal
Human Health, Council for State Biotechnology Associations (CSBA)  •  Letters, Testimony & Comments  •  July 29, 2022
The Council of State Bioscience Associations (CSBA) is an alliance of independent, state and territory based, non-profit trade associations, each of which advocates for public policies that support responsible development and delivery of innovative life-enhancing and life-saving biotechnology solutions. We write today to express our serious concerns about the proposals included in the recently released Senate Democrats’ drug pricing proposals, which will devastate that innovation. Most of our biopharmaceutical member companies are small-to-medium in size and relatively few have products on the market.
