BOSTON – Gov. Charlie Baker is "toying" with the idea of turning to the state's all-Democrat congressional delegation for help impressing upon the Obama administration the need to speed up the Food and Drug Administration's generic drug approval process to help drive down costs, he said Monday.
Baker met with the Democratic legislative leaders as a hearing was under way on a proposal from Sen. Mark Montigny (D-New Bedford) to develop a list of "critical" prescription drugs and require their manufacturers to report production, research and development, marketing and advertising costs, as well as various prices charged.
NEW YORK (AP) — Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders opened a series of fresh and fierce attacks against one another on Monday on issues ranging from immigration to fracking as they campaigned across New York ahead of the state's contentious primary.
Campaigning in the New York City borough of Queens, Clinton assailed Sanders for his mixed record on immigration reforms and said he's struggled to detail his positions on foreign policy and financial regulation.
