    Why would republican congressmen do this?



    Republicans Are Warning Drug Companies Not To Cooperate With A Congressional Investigation
    The House Oversight Committee is attempting to study how drug companies set prescription drug prices, but Republicans have warned the industry that it may be better for them not to cooperate.

    So either

    1) Cummings is planning to abuse his power to hurt American businesses

    or

    2) Cummings is not planning to abuse his power and Meadows and Jordan are off their rockers.

    Either way, we have a pretty dysfunctional Congress.

    (Btw, posting gave me a chance to think about the origin of being "off your rocker." What a colorful expression that I've not appreciated enough heretofore).

    Didn't they stated why? They think the Democrats are after the drug companies stock price.

    Traitors. Republicans are more interested in protecting stock prices than their constituents.

    What is more important? Profit for the drug companies or the health of citizens in this country? Obviously it is the profit for the big pharma that is more important to many politicians.
