Biden sees a $35 price cap for insulin as a pivotal campaign issue. It’s not that clear-cut

WASHINGTON (AP) — Rarely a day goes without President Joe Biden mentioning insulin prices.

All that would seemingly add up to a sweeping political and economic impact. The reality is more complicated.

As his campaign tries to emphasize what it sees as an advantage over presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump, Biden often overstates what those people who are eligible for the price cap once paid for insulin. It’s also not clear whether the number of Americans being helped will be enough to help sway November’s election, even in the most closely contested states that could come down to a few thousand votes.
