Senate prospects for bill

Democrats, led by Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, have indicated that lowering the cost of insulin is a huge priority and they hope to have a bill on the floor as soon as next month. "I intend to put a proposal on the floor as soon as we can after Easter," Schumer said on the Senate floor last week.

Georgia Democratic Sen. Raphael Warnock has already introduced the Affordable Insulin Now Act in the Senate, which would similarly cap the cost of insulin at $35 per month. His bill has support from dozens of Democratic senators but no Republicans.

GOP Sen. Susan Collins is also working on a bipartisan measure with Democratic Sen. Jeanne Shaheen that would mirror the House's legislation to cap the cost of insulin to $35. However, the Collins-Shaheen bill is intended to be broader than Warnock’s $35 cap and would seek to lower the underlying cost of insulin.

Schumer said the final product in the Senate could include pieces from both proposals.

Apparently whatever Shaheen and Collins are working on (Shaeen is Co-Chair of the Senate Diabetes Caucus) would probably be folded in to the above.
