Rich Fiesta, executive director for the Alliance for Retired Americans spoke about House Resolution 3, which addresses pharmaceutical drug pricing. He said that the drug prices are rising at an incredibly fast rate and people are unable to afford prescriptions, as their insurance does not cover them fully. Fiesta also talked about the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) and how it includes legislation to lower prices but not the power to negotiate prices if they were to start increasing again.

AWF host Ed “Flash” Ferenc spoke about the National Nurses United union endorsing Bernie Sanders for the second time.

Posted on February 15, 2019 by awfblog

Wernett talked about legislation that will be put in place to allow the negotiation over prescription drug prices. He said that certain prescription drugs in the United States are more than double the price compared to other countries.

Mark Seavey, web editor and blogger for the American Legion Magazine, discussed a floating repair shop just off shore of Vietnam during the Vietnam War. He talked about how the shop would repair 20,000 aircraft components per month during the war and get the aircrafts, along with other machinery, back in action much faster than having to send them all the way back to the U.S to get repaired. Seavey mentioned that if they would send them back to the U.S. for repairs, it would take weeks to get them there, on top of the time to repair and ship back. Thanks to their floating repair center right off shore, they would have a much faster return rate.

AWF host Ed “Flash” Ferenc discussed increasing the minimum wage in Ohio to 15 dollars in hour by 2024 and all the benefits that it would bring to the workers and the rest of the state.
