Pelosi’s drug pricing bill gets another markup and more D.C. events
It’s a busy day in the nation’s capital. First up, the House Ways and Means Committee is meeting to consider various pieces of health legislation, including Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s drug pricing bill. Highly anticipated markups of that bill late last week hardly changed the legislation, even though Republicans came prepared with more than 300 amendments.
A House Education and Labor subcommittee is holding what it’s calling a “long overdue” hearing on the Pregnant Worker’s Fairness Act, which would prohibit employment discrimination against and ensure proper work accommodations for pregnant women and those with children. The bill was introduced in 2017, but has seen little movement since.
Finally, the nonprofit group UsAgainstAlzheimer’s is holding its annual National Alzheimer’s Summit over the next three days. Part of the summit: meetings with members of Congress to advocate for more federal funds for Alzheimer’s research.
