CNN March 2008: Pelosi Won't Divest Drug Stock, Dismisses Conflict Claim
Pelosi introduced the Early Treatment of HIV Act last summer.
Pelosi's husband owns between $250,000 and $500,000 stock in Johnson & Johnson, the company that markets the anemia drug Procrit used by HIV patients and others with anemia. Procrit is manufactured by Amgen, a pharmaceutical firm based in Thousand Oaks, Calif.
CNSNews.com:
In addition to the 28 separate contributions Pelosi received last July from Amgen employees, seven other contributions were made by executives in the months of July and August, for a total of $30,050 to Pelosi's re-election campaign.
Also, Amgen's political action committee gave Pelosi's campaign a total of $10,000 last year.
