Purdue Pharma Spent Over $1.2 Million on Lobbying

A coalition of survivors and advocacy groups are seen staging a die-in protest outside of The United States Bankruptcy Court, to call out the United States justice system for failing to hold the billionaire Sackler Family to account, in White Plains, N.Y. on Aug. 9, 2021.
