Lawmakers press Trump to rethink rule restricting drug imports

Original: Lawmakers urge Trump to rethink new rule that could restrict imported meds from Canada and overseas

A group of US lawmakers is urging President Trump to reconsider a new rule that could restrict the importation of prescription medications from Canada and other overseas sources. The rule could limit patients' access to cheaper medicines from abroad, and critics warn it may raise drug costs. The appeal, reported by STAT, adds to ongoing debate in Washington over drug pricing and supply.

Why now: The proposed rule directly affects drug prices and access, a pressing concern for patients and politicians.
