THE AFFORDABLE MEDICINE ACT

It’s time for Nevada to take action to address the high cost of prescription drugs and ensure that all residents can access the medications they need to stay healthy.

The Affordable Medicine Act will cap the price of life-saving medication, and save hard-working Nevadans thousands of dollars, regardless of age.
