U.S. Senator Lamar Alexander (R -- Tenn.) today spoke on the floor of the Senate about the Food and Drug Administration Safety and Innovation Act, saying: "Half of Americans take at least one prescription drug every day. One in six take three or more, and many take over-the-counter medicines. It is a real miracle what has happened in terms of our lives, with the introductions of medicines , and we rely upon the Food and Drug Administration to keep those medicines safe and effective, which is what this legislation is about."
