Summary

Donald Trump signed an executive order reversing several Biden-era health policies, including initiatives to lower prescription drug costs and strengthen the Affordable Care Act (ACA).

Key changes include rescinding a $2 monthly cap on certain generics and ending extended Obamacare enrollment periods.

Experts say these moves will have limited immediate impact on out-of-pocket health costs but signal Trump’s disinterest in continuing Biden’s health care reforms.

Trump’s stance on Medicare drug price negotiations remains unclear, leaving major Biden initiatives like insulin and prescription drug caps untouched for now.

      I’d prefer not, to be honest. Any Trump stuff or anything to do with specific political parties I think would be better in a specific politics community. I’ll try to find some good RSS feeds for general US news so it’s easier to populate with a good flow of content while still keeping it as just normal news. It’ll be good I think to have an oasis.
