The system is failing so many, including people in our district who are making heartbreaking decisions to afford their medication, like skipping meals or rationing medicine. While we work on amendments to bring this bill back, I'm keeping those stories at the forefront of my mind.

000

State Rep. Nabeela Syed @repnabeelasyed.bsky.social · 01/04/2026

I've been working on this bill for three years, and getting it called for a hearing hasn't been easy. There's still work ahead. This is what I know: People in our country pay far more for prescription drugs than they should.

State Rep. Nabeela Syed @repnabeelasyed.bsky.social · 01/04/2026

Last week, we had a two and a half hour committee hearing on my bill to establish a Prescription Drug Affordability Board (HB1443). The room was packed with lobbyists and pharmaceutical company representatives, taking turns to testify.
