The Center for Innovation and Free Enterprise supports free market principles and strong intellectual property rights. The recent recommendations proposed by Joe Biden on numerous issues are concerning for the future of American healthcare and innovation.
We need innovative research and development of the newest and best treatments and medications at prices that are affordable for Americans, without government interference. Allowing the government to set prices on prescription drugs will lead to limited access, poor quality of care, and overall higher costs.
The International Pricing Index, Pelosi’s H.R. 3, and Biden’s push for socialized healthcare and weakened patent protections all have something in common – they undermine the free market through restrictive price controls and government-sanctioned IP theft and ultimately hurt patient access. These destructive socialist ideas have no place in America’s healthcare system and must be stopped.
