					<description><![CDATA[Tampa Bay-area Congresswoman Kathy Castor is the latest Democrat to sign on to bipartisan legislation that addresses skyrocketing prescription drug price increases. On Tuesday, the Tampa Representative announced she was co-sponsoring the FAIR Drug Pricing Act, would require manufacturers who increase the price of a drug by more than ten percent a year to disclose the information behind that decision to taxpayers, including their spending on research and development, as well as advertising and marketing. “We must work to ensure that lifesaving treatments are never out&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[As he continues to pile up missed votes, Marco Rubio hasn&#8217;t been shy about the fact that he can&#8217;t stand the U.S. Senate. Fine, say his critics. Resign and let someone else do the job instead. This morning the South Florida Sun-Sentinel is calling for Rubio to step down in their lead editorial. If you hate your job, senator, follow the honorable lead of House Speaker John Boehner and resign it. Let us elect someone who wants to be there and earn an&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[When Hillary Rodham Clinton takes the stage at fundraisers thrown by a group that wants to elect her president, she&#8217;s not presented as a White House candidate. She&#8217;s a &#8220;special guest.&#8221; When Jeb Bush raises money for a group preparing to run major parts of his all-but-certain presidential campaign, he doesn&#8217;t ask for the cash himself.
