At CHAIN, we fight for accessible and affordable healthcare in Colorado. A new bill, SB71, would give rich urban hospitals, drug middlemen, and giant pharmacy chains legal authority to pocket drug discounts that belong to our families.
Senator Kyle Mullica has been a champion for lowering the cost of prescription drugs. We are asking him to join us in stopping the raid on our drug discounts and OPPOSE Senate Bill 71!

Sample Letter:
Dear Senator Mullica, My name is [Your Name], and I am a resident of District 24. I am writing to express my strong opposition to Senate Bill 71. This legislation would give giant hospitals and drug middlemen unlimited power to take drug discounts that belong to Colorado’s struggling families.
I urge you to vote NO on SB 71 and stand with your constituents in protecting healthcare affordability and accessibility. Your leadership on this issue is critical to ensuring that Colorado’s at-risk and underserved families are who benefit from the 340B drug discounts, not mega hospitals and drug middlemen.
Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to seeing you take a stand against SB 71.
Sincerely,

Dear Senator Mullica:
Colorado families are struggling to afford life-saving medications. Drug discounts meant for families under the federal 340B program are being swallowed up by rich mega hospitals and shadowy drug middlemen. Incredibly, SB71 would give these profiteers unchecked power to raid the discount program with impunity.
We urge you to protect Colorado families and vote no on SB71. Thank you.
