The U.S. is ceding biopharma leadership to China. In 2024, China listed over 7,100 clinical trials, while the U.S. listed about 6,000. Problematic policies like #MFN would worsen this divide – we cannot let that happen.

Take a look at my most recent blog post on the proposed Most Favored Nation policy. It would be job killing, innovation crippling policy all the way around and the only nation it would favor is China. Sorry if I'm being too subtle. but this is BAD folks.
The proposed MFN drug pricing model threatens to deliver a sharp blow to the U.S. life sciences industry that has created millions of jobs & countless life-saving cures. Congress must reject an MFN proposal. See more from @weworkforhealth's @DLeonard_DC:

Happy to share this opinion piece on the importance of having strong IP protections.
Our Executive Director @DLeonard_DC's newest op-ed is a smart reminder: Without strong IP protections that encouraged the development of GLP-1s in the first place, there would be no treatments for generic drug makers to reproduce. More in @MedEconomics:
