Drug prices bill sponsored by Democrats is expected to be passed in the House next week,
However it’s very unlikely to pass the Senate.
While a bipartisan bill from the Senate Finance Committee would impact prices on 2% of all drug sales and the Trump Administration’s plan would hit about 3% of sales, the House bill being floated would apply to the entire U.S. market.

Pfizer (PFE), Merck (NYSE:MRK), Bristol-Myers Squibb (NYSE:BMY), Novartis (NYSE:NVS), Roche (OTCQX:RHHBY), Johnson & Johnson (NYSE:JNJ), Eli Lilly (NYSE:LLY), GlaxoSmithKline (NYSE:GSK), AstraZeneca (NYSE:AZN), Amgen (NASDAQ:AMGN) Biogen (NASDAQ:BIIB), Gilead Sciences (NASDAQ:GILD), Teva Pharmaceutical Industries (NYSE:TEVA), Takeda (NYSE:TAK), AbbVie (NYSE:ABBV) and Bausch Health Companies (NYSE:BHC)
[size=5][i]and sadly listening to history being made in IMPEACHMENT hearings
I am listening in background as I work from home today :woohoo:
And maybe censure is what I see — but House is too polarized for any middle ground
There were some mistakes made (likely unintentional)
But as Stephen Castor noted in brilliant opening remarks –
the case is being stretched beyond what really happened based on hearsey[/i][/size]

With No Fear in the US markets despite the risk DAX hit a 5 week low – down 1.5% to its lowest level since 1 November

Owners reporting it is a good time to expand increased by 6 points and those expecting better business conditions increased by 3 points.
NFIB Uncertainty Index fell 6 points in November to 72, the lowest reading since May 2018.
“Owners are most closely focused on issues that directly impact their business, including the real, significant tax relief they were given two years ago, and they’re anxious to see that relief made permanent”, said NFIB Chief Economist William Dunkelberg.
NFIB Business Optimism Index in the United States averaged 98.36 Index Points from 1975 until 2019, reaching an all time high of 108.80 Index Points in August of 2018 and a record low of 80.10 Index Points in April of 1980.

House Democrats announced two articles of impeachment against President Trump this morning
Abuse of power and obstruction of Congress.
“We do not take these actions lightly,” said Rep. Jerry Nadler, chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, in making the announcement. “The integrity of our next election is at risk.”
The Judiciary Committee is expected to vote Thursday on the articles, making way for a full House vote. Trump faces impeachment over allegations that he used his office to pressure the Ukrainian government into announcing investigations into political opponents, including former Vice President Joe Biden and his son Hunter.
In a tweet this morning, Trump said trying to impeach him is “sheer political madness.

Personally I favor only censure on stretched allegations :whistle:
and a good “check & balance” on our General Patton type POTUS – lolUkraine probes seem to be more on settling 2016 election wrongs than 2020 campaign
as there is no need to dig up dirt on VP Joe for 2020 as I don’t think he’ll make it anyway
at times he’s not the healthiest shape to even make the run physically or mentally
but as silver lining — House may even not get enough votes & likely to strengthen re-election chances[/i][/color][/size]
