Time to wrap up Mueller’s probe

Roughly 25 years ago, Congress created a program, the 340B Drug Discount Program, to help safety-net clinics and community health centers improve the health of needy communities throughout the country. Unfortunately, some bad actors are taking advantage of the program for their own benefit while communities, including some here in Texas, are suffering.

The Senate HELP Committee hearing last week examining the 340B drug discount program, another example of a well-intentioned government scheme gone awry, shows that Washington is finally getting serious about passing much-needed modernization and reform.
