Senator Bernie Sanders discusses with Bill Maher on his TV show what Proposition 61 means to the people in California.

Proposition 61, the California Drug Price Relief Act of 2016 - If voters pass the measure, the State of California would be required to pay no more for prescription drugs than is paid for the same medication by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. It could also negotiate for prices below those paid by the Department. This would encompass all drug purchases in which the State is the ultimate payer, whether it purchased the drugs directly from the pharmaceutical companies or not.

Ultimately, millions of Californians would benefit if this proposal passes. The millions of income-tax payers would see the state save billions of dollars on drug purchases – freeing up funds to redirect to other critical health-care needs. Taxpayers would also save directly because their tax dollars pay the drug costs for the 112,000 inmates in California state prisons. The nearly five million Californians who are non-HMO participants in Medi-Cal, and who are members of CalPERS, and the 31,000 participants in the AIDS Drug Assistance program (ADAP), could also benefit from lower co-pays and deductibles for drug purchases. In addition, this proposal could ultimately force the drug companies to moderate price increases across the board, based on public pressure and the lowered prices of state-purchased drugs.
