Episode description

Ensuring Americans have access to necessities is essential, but what can be done when drug shortages and supply chain vulnerabilities risk people's ability to receive their medications?


Senator Tom Cotton (R-AR) and Senator Tim Kaine (D-VA) discuss how their bill, the Protect Our Essential Medicines Act, would create an interagency task force to focus on the risk of drug supply shortages and take steps to ensure critical medicines are available to Americans, including those needed by the military.
