We
live in a golden era for American medicine, senior health
leaders from across the Trump Administration point out. Incredible
new medicines and technologies improve and extend our lives. Yet
all Americans at some point will face the burden of paying high
prices for prescription drugs, say HHS Secretary Alex Azar, FDA
Commissioner Scott Gottlieb, and CMS Administrator Seema Verma.
President
Trump has a message for these Americans: Help is on the way.
“One of my greatest priorities is to reduce the price of
prescription drugs,” the President said earlier this year. In
May, he unveiled his blueprint for achieving just that.
The
“American Patients First” blueprint has a few important
principles to guide the Administration’s plan of action:
An update on Judge Brett Kavanaugh
Senate
leaders plan to hold a vote on President Trump’s nominee for
the Supreme Court, Judge Brett Kavanaugh, by early fall.
Meanwhile, a diverse group of legal scholars, editorial boards,
and public figures have called for his swift confirmation.
“Judge
Kavanaugh has an exemplary record that suggests he will help
to restore the Supreme Court to its proper, more modest role in
American politics and society,” The Wall Street Journal’s
editors write. His 300-some decisions on the U.S. Court of Appeals
for the District of Columbia “reflect a great allegiance to the
words of the Constitution,” the Chicago Tribune adds.
Most
important, he receives rave reviews from those who know him
best: his former students and fellow members of the legal
community. “I’m a
liberal feminist lawyer,” Lisa Blatt writes. “Sometimes a
superstar is just a superstar.”
