Steve Chabot Chose Big Pharma Over Ohio Families

Chabot pockets nearly $150,000 from big pharma while voting against lowering drug costs

New reporting from the American Independent today detailed nearly $150,000 in campaign donations that Rep. Steve Chabot received from the pharmaceutical industry in this election cycle as he repeatedly does big pharma’s bidding in Congress.

As a reminder, Chabot voted against the Inflation Reduction Act, legislation that will cap drug prices for Medicare recipients across the country. And earlier this year, Chabot voted against a bill that would have capped the out-of-pocket cost for insulin at $35 per month – despite Ohioans being forced to ration insulin due to pharmaceutical greed.

Yet again, Chabot chose lining his own pockets over people, corporations over communities. 

DCCC Spokesperson Nebeyatt Betre
“Time and time again, Steve Chabot votes against legislation to lower the sky-high prescription drug costs for Ohioans in need of relief, choosing price-gouging corporations and special interests over families. Voters will eagerly elect new leadership in November who actually deliver for them.”
