Democrats are accusing a major pharmaceutical company of trying to influence the Trump administration's plan to lower drug prices.

Emails obtained by Democrats and publicly released Friday show that Novartis sent Michael Cohen, a former lawyer for President Trump, a list of proposals to lower drug prices.

Several of those proposals later appeared in the administration's "blue print" to lower drug prices.

In an email dated June 5, 2017, ex-Novartis CEO Joe Jimenez sent Cohen an email with a document attached called "drug pricing initiatives."
