Join the Fight Against Big Pharma

Add your name to join more than 150,000 people and more than 70 groups who are demanding that the CEOs of Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals Inc., Bristol Myers Squibb Co., Janssen Pharmaceuticals Inc., Merck, Novartis Pharmaceuticals Co., and Novo Nordisk withdraw their unconscionable lawsuits attempting to block drug price negotiation provisions under the Inflation Reduction Act.


As concerned patients, citizens, and advocates for affordable drugs, we are outraged by your current legal action to attempt to prevent Medicare from negotiating prices for some of its costliest drugs.

Medicare's ability to negotiate drug prices is a critical step toward making medications more affordable for millions of Americans, especially seniors and those with limited financial resources. Your actions undermine the fundamental principle that everyone deserves the medication they need at prices they can afford.

Your lawsuits against Medicare's authority to negotiate drug prices directly oppose the interests of patients and taxpayers who overwhelmingly support Medicare's ability to negotiate.

We call on you to immediately withdraw your lawsuits against Medicare negotiation.

Add your name: We must end forced prison labor

Companies across the country rake in profits from products that rely on forced prison labor. People behind bars are being forced into hard labor—harvesting crops, raising livestock, cleaning dangerous machinery in poultry processing plants—for mere pennies per hour or nothing at all.

This is modern-day slavery. It has to end.

ADD YOUR NAME: To help Vera open doors to housing

Housing policies and practices that discriminate against people with conviction histories contribute to high rates of homelessness and make it more difficult for formerly incarcerated people to move forward with their lives.

Vera is working to remove barriers to housing and ensure that those impacted by our unjust criminal legal system get a real opportunity to reenter their communities and succeed.

Add your name to support accessible public housing for formerly incarcerated people.
