Prescription drug prices are too high, and Arizona families deserve relief. Today, I’m launching a free prescription drug discount card available through ArrayRx to all Arizonans to help lower the cost of critical and lifesaving medications.

Using their discount card, Arizonans can save up to 80% on prescriptions, including mail-order and specialty drugs at pharmacies across the state and country.

Free to sign up. No income limits. No hidden fees.

1. Great idea.

2. I'm betting this is no different than GoodRx, which is available to Arizonans without the government branding.

. . . after a little research . . . . golly, gosh, gee whiz - I was right.

(Same program - available in multiple states.)

Not that it's not a good deal - I use GoodRx frequently. It is very helpful in the mid-range drug price range. Virtually no discount for high priced drugs, and insurance is often better for the lower priced drugs.

I'm just skeptical of states adopting an idea and then pretending it is new/theirs.

3. Hobbs is starting to look very presidential to me

It’s too bad a woman won’t be the Dem nominee in 2028, but I predict she will have a bright political future.
