Expand Medicare drug-price negotiations

Neal introduced the Lowering Drug Costs for American Families Act (H.R. 4895). It would let Medicare negotiate prices for more drugs, give people with private insurance access to those negotiated prices, and require drug companies to pay a penalty when they raise prices faster than inflation for people with private or employer-based health insurance.
