It’s been 7 hours since Trump announced and apparently signed an Executive Order to peg what Medicare pays for drugs to the International Price Index.

The other 3 EOs he signed were released hours ago, but No. 4, the only one with teeth, is mysteriously absent. 1/2

Not only has the White House not released it, they’ve already changed the story about what happens next. Trump said it would be up to @PhRMA to come up w a plan to lower prices. Tonight WH shifts accountability to Congress to “finally decides to act after decades of failure.” 2/2

No text of the EO, a monthlong grace period for @PhRMA to lobby its way out of it, and no real plan for what will trigger it vs. what won’t, suggests the plan was never really to implement this big rule, only to take the credit for it and then let it languish.
