Arizona Voters " Overwhelmingly " pass Right To Try

Arizona becomes the first State where the voters directly approved Right To Try - they didn't listen to the un-informed " scare tactics " of the opposition . We praise our friend Tracy - whose mothers' struggle to try for TDM-1 is told here :

The drugs have gone through basic safety tests , and now with RTR will not face FDA red -tape delays . The companies often pick up the costs of " compassionate use " - they know they have a responsibility to provide potentially life - saving medicines to pts waiting up to 10 yrs for Slow FDA approval. Especially for those drugs like palbociclib that are on a so -called " fast track " ( since last Spring , 2013 - some " fast ' track ) . This drug and many others are not available to most citizens of this country , who live far from the small, slow trials .
Can't wait to testify for the next State Right To Try !
