Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) takes cash from Big Pharma companies and lobbyists despite saying the industry must be punished for jacking up drug prices.

To Sen. Sherrod Brown , Big Pharma is jacking up prices for life-saving drugs to enrich its corporate executives. Now, as the, he is one of the top recipients of donations among senators from the pharmaceutical industry — including companies being accused in court of inflating the cost of insulin.

Brown’s willingness to pocket large checks from the pharmaceutical industry will likely open the lawmaker up to hypocrisy accusations as he makes his case to Ohio voters that he’s the right candidate for the Buckeye State’s competitive Senate seat.

But Brown has yet to swear off campaign donations from Big Pharma. He’s accepted almost $60,000 from PACs for corporations that were accused in March in aby Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner, a Democrat, of illegally “colluding to inflate the consumer cost of insulin.” Those include CVS and Medco Health, among others.
