                        PRESCRIPTION DRUG COSTS

  Mr. GRASSLEY. Madam President, as Democrats in the House of 
Representatives work to pass Speaker Pelosi's prescription drug bill, I 
remind my colleagues that for any bill to become law, it must be 
bipartisan and President Trump must be able to sign it.
  Unlike current House efforts, the Grassley-Wyden Prescription Drug 
Pricing Reduction Act fits the bill. It is bipartisan, and President 
Trump has endorsed it. My Republican colleagues in the House recently 
pointed to it--in other words, the Grassley-Wyden bill--during an 
Energy and Commerce Committee hearing as the only path forward to lower 
prescription drug prices. I welcome this support from Republicans in 
the House of Representatives.
  I yield the floor.
