"Critics say the legislation undermines the FDA's authority to regulate drugs and could leave patients vulnerable to medicines that might not work or even be harmful."

Good journalism, including mention of an opposing viewpoint.

Wouldn't it be great if that happened occasionally with Democrat initiatives as well?

Look at the large number of drugs that DO get FDA approval and then have to be taken back off the market when horrible side effects happen.

Seems to me they aren’t doing such a hot job.

RE: Good journalism, including mention of an opposing viewpoint.

Some questions come up for me... what kind of treatment is allowed to be tried? if the answer is anything, then, you leave the desperate patient vulnerable to hoaxes out there ( and potentially beneficial cures as well ).

On the other hand, if the principle is LIBERTY ( i.e., Freedom to live and take risks as you see fit ), then this bill is totally compatible and in the spirit of the constitution.

True. Now, if these ‘journalists’ only dug back further, like, the authority of the FDA to begin (that restricts/tramples the Rights of the patient-2-doctor/Rx)
