Liberty Upheld President Trump announced that all 50 states' Medicaid programs will now receive prescription drugs through Most-Favored-Nation pricing agreements, meaning manufacturers must match the lowest price paid by any other developed nation for the same medication. The agreements were reached directly with pharmaceutical manufacturers rather than through new legislation.This is a real win for the tens of millions of Americans enrolled in Medicaid who have long paid higher drug prices than patients in comparable countries. The pricing obligation falls entirely on the manufacturers — states do not need to do anything differently to benefit. If you believe Washington should fight for ordinary Americans against powerful pharmaceutical interests, this is exactly what that looks like when it works.
