    (1/2) Patty Bernard of Falmouth testified at a @SenateAging hearing I chaired about the rising cost of rheumatoid arthritis drugs. Her out-of-pocket cost increased from $10/month to $3,800/month when she moved to Medicare.pic.twitter.com/mjBYI40sS9

        (2/2) Patty’s testimony will help us better understand what can be done to moderate the price of prescription drugs without discouraging innovation that helps us live healthier lives. I'll continue to advocate for our seniors. Read more: https://www.collins.senate.gov/newsroom/mainer-rheumatoid-arthritis-testifies-senate-aging-committee-hearing …

        If you cared about healthcare you would not have voted for the tax bill.

        Um, yeah, how about single-payer like every other first world country. And don't tell me we can't afford it. We can apparently afford to give $1.5 trillion to millionaires and billionaires. #priorities

        It's really too bad that you spent so much time working for the #TrumpTaxScam instead of actually trying to fix things in Congress. Can't wait to vote you out. People like you are the reason we have such horrendous health care in this country.

        She is lucky she got her benefits when she did. Future generations will have their care cut back when MCR, MCD and SS are gutted to pay for tax breaks for you, your corporate donors and your rich friends. ##GOPTaxScam #VoteSusanOut

        By the way RHEUMATOID arthritis has NOTHING to do with aging. It is not OSTEOarthritis. RHEUMATOID is an autoimmune disease. I got it at age 14z

        Strictly speaking, Osteoarthritis has nothing to do with aging either. It only happens in older people because they've had longer to abuse their bodies!

        Right. But it’s a wear and tear disease not an autoimmune disease. Even in a correlative way RA has zilch to do with aging!

        Did you tell her that you voted against her healthcare when you voted for tax reform which she will see little or nothing from?

        It’s awful. I have RA & can’t afford my osteoporosis drugs due to weakened bones from years of prednisone (have had ra since age 14). Insurance “covers” it but I have a $1600 copay!

        She should enjoy her Medicare NOW. Because thanks to people like you, she will be losing it and forced to go back to work in pain to pay for her medications. Nice job!! #SelloutSusan
