Potential 2020 Democratic presidential contenders are rolling out a slew of plans to lower prescription drug prices.

Democrats see lowering drug prices as a way to harness populist anger at pharmaceutical companies and reclaim an issue that President Trump has put in the spotlight.

Harris joined with Sens. Jeff Merkley and Amy Klobuchar, to introduce a bill allowing the Department of Health and Human Services to review and reject drug price increases that it deems unreasonable.

Warren introduced a bill to let the government manufacture certain drugs and sell them at lower prices if there is not enough competition.

Booker introduced a bill to increase transparency requirements around drug company payments to people with influence over deciding which drugs Medicaid covers.

Sanders unveiled a bill to strip monopolies from drug companies if their prices are deemed excessive.

Democrats see the issue as a political winner for their side, but they are dancing around it with nonreal solution.  Just a thought.
