Senator Bill Cassidy Works With President Trump to Target Prescription Drug Costs and Prepares for Louisiana’s Closed Primary

Sen. Bill Cassidy says he is working with President Donald Trump on new legislation aimed at lowering prescription drug costs. He described the strategy as a series of targeted reforms, including a recently signed law that reins in pharmacy benefit managers and ensures savings reach patients. He also highlighted earlier efforts to eliminate gag clauses that blocked pharmacists from sharing cheaper payment options.Cassidy is campaigning ahead of Louisiana’s May 16 closed primary, reminding voters that only Republicans and no-party voters can participate. He reported raising about $1.4 million and pointed to billions secured for state infrastructure and broadband projects.
