Good news for consumers as President Trump pledges to work with Big Pharma to lower drug prices. His message to pharmaceutical company executives: bring your production back to the United States and the Trump administration will lower regulations for you. “So you have to get your companies back here. We have to make products … We have to get rid of a tremendous number of regulations,” Trump said. “I know you have some problems where you cannot even think about opening up new plants. You can’t get approval for the plant and then you can’t get approval to make the drugs.” Sanders and Rep. Elijah Cummings, D-Maryland, issued a joint statement shortly after the meeting saying they hope Trump “really” takes on the pharmaceutical industry. (cnn.com)
