• Plan: A new fiber-driven system is being developed in Philadelphia to support Newark’s air traffic control.

💊 Prescription Drug Pricing Reform

• Policy Announcement: President Trump introduced a "Most Favored Nation" pricing model to ensure Americans pay the lowest global prices for prescription drugs.
• Examples:

  • An asthma drug priced at $500 in the U.S. costs under $40 in the U.K.
• Executive Action: The order directs federal agencies to enforce fair pricing and bypass middlemen by allowing direct purchases from manufacturers.
• Criticism of Opponents: The commentary accuses the Biden administration of reversing Trump-era reforms and being influenced by pharmaceutical lobbyists.
