Miller-Meeks took money from insulin maker, then voted against insulin caps
For years, Miller-Meeks took thousands from pharmaceutical companies, and she received $1,000 from an insulin manufacturer on the day she voted against a bill to cap insulin prices.
Before voting against a bill that would cap insulin costs and allow the government to negotiate Medicare drug costs, Republican Rep. Marianette Miller-Meeks, who represents Iowa’s First Congressional District in southeast Iowa, took thousands from an insulin manufacturer and other pharmaceutical companies.
Records from the Federal Election Commission show Miller-Meeks received $1,000 from Eli Lilly and Company PAC on Aug. 12, 2022, the day the Inflation Reduction Act was voted on in the US House of Representatives.
