Bob Lavallee speaks on the importance of lowering drug costs.

“Thanks to the decisive leadership of Governor DeSantis and his commitment to empowering patients, we will continue to fight for Floridians and the ability to import high-quality prescription drugs from Canada at a significantly lower price,” said Agency for Health Care Administration Secretary Simone Marstiller.

The FDA has unreasonably delayed approval of our Canadian Prescription Drug Importation Program – which lowers prescription drug costs for Floridians. It was approved by Trump in 2020, and today we filed a lawsuit to end the FDA delay. We have had enough of Biden's bureaucracy.

“Governor DeSantis and I are fighting to lower prescription drug costs, but Washington bureaucrats are blocking our efforts,” said Attorney General Ashley Moody.

“Governor DeSantis continues to push for action on every front from the Biden Administration,” said Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo.
