Tillis, Burr vote in favor of keeping insulin costs high for the average American

Less than a week after showing his apparent disdain for America’s military veterans, North Carolina Republican Senator Thom Tillis showed that he doesn’t care much about helping the millions of Americans living with diabetes.

According to NBC News, 43 Republican senators – including Tillis and Sen. Richard Burr – voted against capping insulin prices at $35 for private insurers as part of the Inflation Reduction Act.

After getting good press for saying he’ll support a bill to codify same-sex and interracial marriage rights, Tillis has done a great job of quickly reminding people that he is still a Republican, and cares more about keeping his donors happy than doing what’s best for North Carolinians.
