Original Note:
The article says “Trump *could weaken*… negotiations” (emphasis added). Under the IRA, Medicare is required to negotiate the prices for certain drugs. Congress would need to pass a law in order to remove the requirement. The executive branch can limit its efficacy, however. https://www.axios.com/2024/02/07/trump-medicare-price-negotiations-executive-power
