1. Incredible

I really didn't expect it to happen so quickly. What a transformative presidency this is turning out to be.

2. Congrats, Mr President! Every single insulin user can thank Joe for a truly life saving gift.

For the 30% or so who don’t use Eli Lilly insulin, I hope they can request it or the other manufacturers follow suit.

7. Amazing how Biden's pressure brought around something that should have happened

Years ago. You Go Joe!

Every diabetic in the country will notice this one.

8. AND because Lilly's watching how Biden leverages other actions along with corp subsidies.

They know he takes action, and is not all talk, so it doesn't want Biden targeting them for further concessions to the public, and so gives in on this one price issue.

9. Bravo, Joe!

One of my neighbors is a 20-year old Type-1 diabetic who will need insulin all his life. This is a good day.
Thank you.

21. This is a BFD. I know people who will benefit tremendously from this. And think of all those...

… who have been skipping doses. Think of the young people who have left the shelter of their parents’ insurance and have literally died.

God bless Joe Biden.

22. :) President Biden bringing the work of MANY good people home!

Including OURS. Of course, we need to get a lot more done.

When WE THE PEOPLE elect enough good people to government, good things happen. Every time.
