Description

President Biden on Monday nudged members of his party in Congress push
through his signature Build Back Better plan, which includes health
provisions to change prescription drug pricing. Democrats’ ability to
meaningfully impact drug prices, however, depends heavily on Congress
passing the party’s $1.7 trillion social spending bill in the coming
weeks. Alice Miranda Ollstein reports.
