Draft legislation on insulin causes confusion online

A piece of draft legislation, which is only a few sentenced long, has been causing a stir on social media.  The place-holder bill talks about a fee on insulin.  Kent Representative Maria Horn says there's been astonishing misrepresentation about the measure.  She says it would make Connecticut the third state in the country to cap insulin prices.  Horn says it levies fees on bad-acting manufacturers and distributors who aren’t transparent about their costs, but some have falsely characterized the bill as taxing insulin. Horn added that skyrocketing costs of insulin have significantly imperiled the lives of those suffering from diabetes and this bill is a step toward curbing that.
