Carney and Bucshon: Legislation Would Help Avert Drug Shortages

This is not a partisan issue and there is nothing partisan about our legislation, which is designed to get at the heart of some of the problems leading to drug shortages.

In the coming weeks, as Congress considers the Prescription Drug User Fee Authorization Act, we urge our colleagues to include the Drug Shortage Prevention Act in the comprehensive reauthorization package.

Congressional gridlock on other issues shouldn’t get in the way of lifesaving legislation to address problems such as drug shortages. We are working hard to ensure that it does not.

Rep. John Carney is a Delaware Democrat. Rep. Larry Bucshon is an Indiana Republican.
