ACT UP targets: the drug industry

PhRMA cowers before ACT UP demo and drops murderous law suit.

On Friday October 11, 1996, ACT UP stormed the national headquarters of the pharmaceutical industry lobby (PhRMA) to protest killer drug prices charged by drug companies.

The high price of AIDS drugs is literally killing thousands of people with AIDS and ripping off taxpayers.

By charging obscene prices, drug companies are bankrupting state and federal AIDS drug programs.
