WASHINGTON, DC, March 4th, 2009 -(Updated March 15th, 2009)--The following information was issued from Senator John McCain of Arizona's Senate office.  As you can see he is very busy with his run the the Presidency out of the way, he is now just focused on the needs of the people.  Having said that MAGNUM can tell you most Migraineurs, with only one major Migraine prescription abortive and no new generic preventives, cost of disease management is very expensive.  Even for those with good insurance access to the best medications can be problematic.  So MAGNUM welcomes the efforts of these four Senators and encourages you to contact your two senators and ask then to join in and support these four healthcare leaders in the Senate.

Senators Dorgan, Snowe, Mccain, Stabenow Introduce Bipartisan Prescription Drug Imporation Bill

These healthcare leaders are U.S. Senators Byron Dorgan (D-ND), Olympia Snowe (R-ME),John McCain (R-AZ), and Debbie Stabenow (D-MI).  MAGNUM is happy to report they introduced critical drug importation legislation today that will reduce the cost of prescription drugs in the United States. The Senators said their legislation, the "Pharmaceutical Market Access and Drug Safety Act," will bring consumers immediate relief and will ultimately force the pharmaceutical industry to lower drug prices in the United States.

"Pharmaceutical Market Access and Drug Safety Act"

The Congressional Budget Office estimates the bill would save American consumers $50 billion over the next decade, including more than $10 billion in federal government savings.
