- From all of us at OCAP, Happy New Year! Together we will lower prescription drug prices in 2026! #Oregon #RXDrugPrices #HappyNewYear #2026
- No one should have to ration their prescriptions because of cost, yet nearly 1 in 3 Oregonians reported doing just that! That's why we're fighting to lower prescription drug costs for all Oregonians! #Oregon #RXDrugPrices #HealthPolicy
- Happy Holidays from all of us at OCAP! #HappyHolidays #Oregon

- Earlier this month we heard from experts in Maryland and Colorado about how their states are working to save patients money on prescription medications through Upper Payment Limits. Here's our quick summary! Stay tuned for more information! #UPL #UpperPaymentLimit #PDAB #RXDrugPrices
- Who benefits when drug companies are allowed to raise list prices faster than the rate of inflation? Not regular Oregonians, that's for sure. #Oregon #ORPol #HealthPolicy #BigPharma #RXDrugPrices
- #ACA tax credits expire Dec. 31. That means 5 million #SmallBusiness owners could see premiums double. We need Congress to extend these credits now. tinyurl.com/4rem5kmv #TheLettersDontLie #HealthPolicy

- #Oregon’s #PDAB was built to lower #RXDrug prices, but power interests and the industry's murky pricing systems are keeping it from doing its job. Meanwhile, states like Colorado are proving that real #reform IS possible. (1/2) www.streetroots.org/news/2025/11... #HealthPolicySky
- Prescription drug costs rose higher than the rate of #inflation AGAIN, with some medications up more than 15%. #Transparency exposes these trends and helps drive solutions. Let’s make drug pricing fair and open. #RXDrugPrices #Oregon #HealthPolicySky
