(Sep. 19, 2019) — At 10:45 a.m. EDT Thursday, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi is scheduled to brief reporters and the public on HR 3, a House bill designed to lower the cost of prescription drugs.
Her address is scheduled to be broadcast on Facebook Live.
“Americans shouldn’t pay more for their prescriptions than people in other countries. House Democrats are preparing to introduce H.R. 3, the Lower Drug Costs Now Act, our plan to cut prescription drug prices for Americans nationwide,” reads the introduction to the address Pelosi is to give.
As of 10:56 a.m., The Post & Email was able to see only the following, with one potential viewer commenting, “No sound.”
As of 11:01 a.m., someone else is speaking on a broadcast hosted by Fox News, at which point Pelosi made an appearance. At 11:03 she took the podium. Because of poor sound quality, The Post & Email is unable to report on the substance of her address.
On Facebook at the same time, the following screen appeared:
Just before 11:00 a.m., Pelosi tweeted that House Democrats “are preparing to introduce H.R. 3, the #LowerDrugCosts Now Act”:
She’s all hype and no action. She’s lying justlike “lets see whats in it” and “you like your doctor you can keep your doctor”. It’s election time. She’ll say anything. this grandma needs to retire.
They probably didn’t turn her mic on.
