Sen. Bernie Sanders has long made no secret that he thinks drug companies and health insurers are ripping off Americans. But now he's chairman of the Senate health committee.
, Sanders previewed the committee's agenda, including how it would "take on the greed of the pharmaceutical industry."
Lawson said he expects Sanders to send letters to drug companies with questions before calling hearings. "We're seeing companies intensify their proactive education and advocacy efforts, while also preparing to deal with fresh attacks from the senator," said a consultant who works with pharmaceutical companies.
Lori Reilly, chief operating officer at the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America, said they are "preparing for anything and everything" when asked about Sanders as chairman.
