CASM Statement on Senate Democrats’ Recent Drug Price Setting Agreement CASM Statement on Senate Democrats’ Recent Drug Price Setting Agreement ALEXANDRIA, VA, July 7, 2022 – The Coalition Against Socialized Medicine (CASM), a broad coalition of leading conservative and free-market groups such as the Conservative Political Action Coalition (CPAC), Heritage Action, FreedomWorks, the National Taxpayers Union, Club for Growth, Citizens Against Government Waste, American Commitment, and the Committee to Unleash Prosperity, has issued the following statement on Senate Democrats’ latest drug price setting agreement, attributable to CASM’s Executive Director Jack Kalavritinos. “This latest drug pricing deal is nothing more than a desperate attempt by Democrats to resurrect the same far-left, socialist-style price-setting schemes they have tried to jam down the throats of America patients many times before to appease their AOC-Sanders-Pelosi-supporting base ahead of the midterm elections. “Despite what left-wing politicians want you to think, price controls would have devastating impacts on patient access and innovation. And in fact, under this far-left plan, so-called ‘savings’ would go not to patients, but instead be usurped by politicians to pay for their unrelated pet big-government entitlement programs. “CASM and its members strongly condemn this radical proposal which would ultimately mean less access and fewer treatments and cures for America’s patients — but more taxpayer dollars in the bureaucrats’ slush fund.” ### Learn more about CASM by visiting: https://nosocializedmedicine.org .

CPAC Calls for Resignations from Secretary Mayorkas, AG Garland, WH Counsel Ed Siskel, and Secret Service Director Kimberly A. Cheatle CPAC Calls for Resignations from Secretary Mayorkas, AG Garland, WH Counsel Ed Siskel, and Secret Service Director Kimberly A. Cheatle CPAC calls for immediate transparency on every security decision made for all the presidential campaigns, especially President Donald J. Trump’s. It is clear there was a wholly preventable catastrophic security failure on behalf of the Biden Administration when it came to the life of the candidate who is likely to beat President Biden in November. This is compounded by the casual disregard to the life of presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. President Trump has faced a coordinated attempt to deprive him of his civil rights through lawfare at the state and national level quarterbacked by Attorney General Merrick Garland and White House Counsel Ed Siskel. If President Biden and his administration want to restore any credibility after all this treachery, he should immediately fire Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, Attorney General Merrick Garland, White House Counsel Ed Siskel, and U.S. Secret Service Director Kimberly A. Cheatle. Furthermore, if the individuals listed have any sense of duty and honor, they should immediately apologize to President Trump and the American people and resign from their posts. If they do not, they will be responsible for a further fraying of our republic, of which they have mouthed feigned support.

Mercedes Schlapp’s Fox News op-ed: Republican Latina playbook can help GOP win Hispanic voters in midterm elections Mercedes Schlapp’s Fox News op-ed: Republican Latina playbook can help GOP win Hispanic voters in midterm elections In a new column for FoxNews.com , CPAC Foundation Senior Fellow Mercedes Schlapp talks about the influence Republican Latinas have to lead conservative victories in the midterms. For too long, Republicans have pandered to Hispanics voters with promises of open borders and amnesty. Ronald Reagan, George W. Bush and John McCain advocated for comprehensive immigration reform that would incentivize unending waves of illegal immigration. In 2013, the Republican National Committee doubled down on the identity politics with an autopsy of the 2012 midterm elections that concluded the GOP could win only with a softened stance on immigration, after Republicans half-heartedly embraced stronger borders that election cycle. Times have changed as Hispanic Republican candidates, especially Latinas, are embracing President Donald Trump’s America First blueprint and executing their own law and order playbook. Rep. Mayra Flores, the first Mexican-born woman elected to Congress, and the first-ever Republican to represent the Rio Grande Valley, campaigned on liberating south Texas from the scourge of illegal immigration, human trafficking and criminal gangs.
