*This is subject to change according to the U.S. Senate floor schedule.
Background:
Cassidy's MVP agenda gives money directly to patients, cuts out the middlemen, increases price transparency, and expands access to healthy food. As the first physician to chair the HELP Committee, Cassidy is a longtime champion of empowering patients and lowering health care costs for families. President Trump recently signed Cassidy's PBM Reform Act into law, increasing price transparency and cracking down on middlemen that drive up prescription drug prices for patients. Cassidy also led the Health Care Freedom for Patients Act with U.S. Senator Mike Crapo (R-ID) as an alternative to Democrats' plan to continue giving billions of dollars to giant insurance companies.
