Rose, senior citizens talk prescription drug prices
BAY RIDGE — U.S. Rep. Max Rose held a roundtable discussion with a group of senior citizens to discuss the skyrocketing cost of prescription drugs and what the federal government can do to help older adults afford the life-saving medications they depend on.
“We’ve been letting Big Pharma price gouge and rip off our seniors for far too long,” said Rose, who hosted the roundtable at his Brooklyn district office on Third Avenue on Oct. 18.
Rose was joined by Peter Killen, president of AARP Bay Ridge Chapter 3630, and a handful of the group’s members.
