Rep. Sharice Davids, who represents Kansas’ 3rd district in the U.S. Congress, has recently addressed significant issues through her social media platform. She shared insights into legislative actions aimed at reducing drug prices and improving community conditions.

On December 2, 2024, Rep. Davids highlighted her support for measures to lower medication costs by stating, "No one should have to choose between paying rent and lifesaving medications. That’s why I voted to stand up to Big Pharma and finally allow Medicare to negotiate lower drug prices." She emphasized that this initiative would benefit approximately 74,000 Kansans on Medicare by allowing them to save up to 79% on certain medications.

The following day, on December 3, 2024, she encouraged constituents to learn more about the broader impacts of these changes on local communities with a post reading "Read more about how this will impact communities across S03 and beyond! https://t.co/Tue4TMTrgG".

In another tweet posted shortly after on the same day, Rep. Davids reiterated the importance of these initiatives for environmental improvements in her district: "Read more about how this will help clean up communities across #KS03 and beyond! https://t.co/Tue4TMTrgG".
