<h4>Democrat Can’t Believe Pharmacist Colleague Is Defending RFK Jr.</h4>

Treat cost disease, reduce the debt, and save Social SecurityAmericans deserve better than a hot-potato game of ‘affordability’. In that game, whichever party is out of power promises to lower prices. Then, it fails to deliver.Americans deserve financial freedom. That requires:- Treating cost disease. Cost disease is when prices in a sector go up faster than wages, year over year. Housing, healthcare, and utilities are most afflicted. But their cost disease can be treated. Cut regulations that drive up prices, like bans on starter homes. Promote technology that lowers prices, particularly in hospital services. And, always: take on special interests, like utilities, that keep prices high.Read more:- <a href="https://www.economist.com/by-invitation/2025/07/03/a-congressman-on-how-democrats-can-regain-the-initiative-on-the-economy">A congressman on how Democrats can regain the initiative on the economy</a> (The Economist)- <a href="https://jakeauch.substack.com/p/simple-but-not-easy-11?triedRedirect=true">Cost disease: what it is &amp; why it matters</a> (Simple but Not Easy)- <a href="https://jakeauch.substack.com/p/lower-prices-or-perish?triedRedirect=true">Lower prices or perish</a> (Simple but Not Easy)- Saving Social Security. This earned benefit is sacrosanct. Yet, it’s on track to be insolvent by 2033. Congress must fix the arithmetic of Social Security. That fix should include the wealthiest paying more than into a Trust Fund. It should also include raising the minimum wage and expanding access to wealth creation for workers.Read more:- <a href="https://jakeauch.substack.com/p/simple-but-not-easy-15">Save Social Security &amp; the 3-leg stool</a> (Simple but Not Easy)- Reduce the debt. The last president to balance the budget was a Democrat, and the next one should be, too. Handing off more than $40 trillion in debt to the next generation is a bill that comes due in taxes and inflation. It’s not fair.Lowering deficits requires changes in growth, taxes and spending. Education, science, infrastructure and legal immigration improvements drive growth. Closing tax preferences like the Buy-Borrow-Die loophole for billionaires will raise tax revenue. And pursuing efficiencies in healthcare delivery, especially in chronic-disease care, can lower spending.Read more:- <a href="https://jakeauch.substack.com/p/simple-but-not-easy-14" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Reducing the debt, part 2: the policies</a> (Simple but Not Easy)

Medical science delivers therapies for dread diseases like cancer, Alzheimer’s, and addiction. It’s also a jobs engine for Massachusetts. Every 10 biotech hires generates 16 non-biotech jobs.Yet science is under attack right now.Bloomberg called me the “Democrat taking on RFK Jr.” I fight his quackery, grift and incompetence. I am also leading legislation to:- Fix affordability and access in drug pricing. Patients should pay low or no co-pays. Insurance companies must not abuse prior authorization. And American patients should always get the newest, life-saving medicines.- Support and defend the integrity of the National Institutes of Health and the Food &amp; Drug Administration. Peer review, not politics, should determine which science is funded. Medicines should be evaluated based on safety &amp; efficacy, not wins for the White House.- Modernize U.S. clinical trials infrastructure. Better and faster trials will reduce the cost of drug development, bring therapies to market faster, and make the United States more competitive versus China.Read more:- <a href="https://insidehealthpolicy.com/inside-drug-pricing-daily-news/auchincloss-calls-fda-voucher-program-illegal-warns-political">Auchincloss Calls FDA Voucher Program ‘Illegal,’ Warns of Political Pressure </a>(Inside Health Policy)- <a href="https://jakeauch.substack.com/p/america-versus-alzheimers">America versus Alzheimer's</a> (Simple but Not Easy)- <a href="https://www.bostonglobe.com/2024/02/06/opinion/jake-auchincloss-biotech-funding-essay/">Congress should commit to US biotechnology leadership</a> (The Boston Globe)

Social media corporations are running an experiment on our children for profit. The results are devastating for families. Children experience more anxiety and bullying and less outdoors time and in-real-life community.In 2024, I co-led legislation to force TikTok out from under the Chinese Communist Party. Now I’m leading legislation in Congress to:- Raise the minimum age for social media accounts from 13 to 16. Social media and similar apps must verify users’ ages without uploading photo IDs or scanning faces.- Hold social media &amp; AI companies liable for deepfakes, harassment, and other harms.- Tax Big Tech – which pays lower effective rates than most nurses – to fund the construction of 1,000 trade schools and to surge 1:1 tutoring to public schools. After the catastrophic school closures, American public school students need more help.Read more here:- <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/09/04/opinion/digital-dopamine-irl.html">Digital Dopamine Is Consuming America.

Corruption is out of control. It’s not just Trump, with his crypto scams and slush funds for friends &amp; felons. It’s a political system in which dark money floods elections, lawmakers don’t listen, and authoritarian actions go unpunished.We must:- Overturn Citizens United. Mine was the first signature on a ballot petition in Massachusetts to overturn this Supreme Court decision. It unleashed dark money and corporate contributions in elections. I’ll continue working to clean up that mess.- Ban government officials from stock trading, prediction markets, and cryptocurrencies. Elected officials should also submit annual cognitive exams for the public record.- Restore checks &amp; balances. Strengthen congressional control over war, tariffs, appropriations, law enforcement, and independent agencies.The rule of law is not only about the Constitution. It’s also about public safety. When shampoo is locked up, but not shoplifters, then public order decays. Public safety policy should prosecute those who break the law with firmness and justice. It should train and resource the police to solve crimes at a higher rate. And it should integrate behavioral and addiction services.Read more:- <a href="https://www.wsj.com/economy/jake-auchincloss-mass-democrat-election-bfb8795f" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">This Democrat Thinks Voters Seeking Order Will Make or Break Elections</a> (The Wall Street Journal)- <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2026/01/02/jake-auchincloss-democrat-massachusetts-centrist/">Rep.
