Trade unions are joining the pharmaceutical industry to attack Democrats over their long-anticipated legislation to lower prescription drug prices. The Pharmaceutical Industry Labor-Management Association, or PILMA, a coalition between the biggest pharmaceutical companies in the nation and union construction workers, recently sent out mailers using industry talking points to slam House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s signature drug-pricing plan.

The mailer — which warns that the bill would “eliminate millions of American jobs” and have a “devastating impact on the economy” — is also at odds with broad union support for the Lower Drug Costs Now Act.

The PILMA mailer, which was obtained by The Intercept, was distributed in New York’s 22nd Congressional District and urged constituents to call Rep. Anthony Brindisi and tell him to “put a stop” to the drug-pricing bill. Brindisi, who narrowly won a seat in 2018 previously held by a Republican, often cites high prescription drug prices as a top concern in his district. It’s likely that versions of the mailer were sent in other districts as well. Congressional Republicans have attacked the plan as being “socialist,” saying that it would stifle research and innovation, and waving off the fact that pharmaceutical companies spend more on marketing than on drug development.

“Recently introduced H.R. 3 would eliminate millions of American jobs and risk access to critical medicines,” the mailer reads, echoing GOP messaging. The pamphlet does not say how it arrived at a job loss figure in the “millions.”

“Implementation of this plan will have catastrophic consequences on a market-based system that has made the U.S. a leader in innovation for lifesaving cures and will have a devastating impact on the economy, including union construction work,” it continues. “In addition, passage of this harmful legislation would provide little relief to patients at the pharmacy counter.”
