Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) has asked the American Medical Association and thirty-two other medical groups to disclose the financial backing they receive from drug and medical device manufacturers and insurance companies.
"He's going after political opponents, trying to undermine their credibility by attempting to turn the focus onto who their funders are instead of addressing the substance of their policy arguments," says ACSH's Jeff Stier.
ACSH's Dr. Gilbert Ross agrees: "Grassley has been in forefront of the anti-pharmaceutical industry movement. This is a witch hunt."
