Election-Eve Magic: Trump's Latest Misleading Drug Pricing Order

Washington, D.C. – U.S. Representative Lloyd Doggett (D-TX), Chair of the House Ways and Means Health Subcommittee, reacted to more of President Trump's executive orders today:

"Trump proposes empty election-eve magic to miraculously lower drug prices ‘FAST' after failing to lower any prices during almost four years. Typical Trump—bluster and falsehoods, few details and multiple exceptions, while lowering drug prices for nobody this year. If only tweets and decrees could solve our problems. Trump aims to make a misleading headline for his failing campaign, not a genuine difference for victims of price gouging."
