About P4AD Action

Patients For Affordable Drugs Action (P4ADA) is a bipartisan patient-led political action committee founded to make sure politicians hear from real patients and not just the drug industry political machine. 

The organization was founded by David Mitchell, a patient with incurable blood cancer whose drugs this year carry a price tag of more than $900,000. 

In 2016, Big Pharma spent $247 million lobbying and in the last election cycle donated $30 million to help elect politicians. Now, Patients For Affordable Drugs Action works as a counterweight to the pharmaceutical political machine and fights for lower drug prices for Americans.

In 2020, P4ADA received $4,768,702 from Arnold Ventures and had short-term interest income of $133.

Patients For Affordable Drugs Action is independent and refuses funding from any organization that profits from the development or distribution of prescription drugs.
