DPC Urges Missouri Governor to Veto 340B Expansion

The Domestic Policy Caucus today wrote to Missouri Governor Mike Parson, urging him to veto an expansion of 340B, as contained in S.B. 751, which has been sent to his desk.

In part, DPC wrote, "Disparities in access to care and health outcomes for rural, underserved, and minority populations have long been significant issues. Any policy that could further restrict the availability of medicines to these populations--or force them to travel farther to obtain them--needs to take the issue of health equity into consideration. There should be much more discussion, analysis, and debate before determining whether to head down this uncertain and troubling policy path."
