YAY! Walgreens caves. Now I won't have to find another pharmacy to carry the meds

I take that other pharmacies don't want to carry. Without insurance, the cost is over $3,500/month & criminals seek the meds out to sell on the street. CVS, Meijers, & 2 local pharmacies told me they wouldn't carry them, nor would they order them for me. I just got this e-mail:

Diane --

VICTORY! On Tuesday, under mounting pressure from progressive organizations like Democracy for America, Democrats in Congress and even the President himself, Walgreens decided not to move its headquarters to Europe in order to avoid paying American taxes.

This is a HUGE deal, and not just because Walgreens will continue to pay their fair share. It's huge because it proves that when we as a movement work together and take immediate action, we have the power to make corporate America do the right thing.

Now we have to stay on offense. Together, we can build on the example we just set with Walgreens and hold corporate America's feet to the fire -- not just on inversions, but on poverty wages, outsourcing and more. We want to double down on holding big businesses accountable -- but we can only do it with your help.

Donate $3 today if you want DFA to wage war on big businesses like Walmart when they take actions that hurt working Americans.

We're all frustrated with the gridlock in Washington and how it has rendered Congress incapable of reigning in corporate excesses. And now that Citizens United and McCutcheon have made corporate money in our political system almost limitless, it's going to be even more difficult to elect true progressives like Elizabeth Warren who will take corporate accountability seriously.

DFA is working hard to put more rock-star progressives in office, but what happened on Tuesday proves that we don't have to wait for Washington to catch up to make a difference in how business runs in America. We need to keep using our voices and our economic power to show corporate executives that we are not going to sit back and take their abuse anymore.
Want to join DFA in fighting corporate wrongdoing? Pitch in $3 now so we can keep building grassroots campaigns to fight back.

Thank you for being a part of this victory - and for proving, once again, that you really DO have the power.
